About Dr. Neha Thakur Rai
Dr. Thakur is the Joint Secretary for Pediatric Emergency Medicine at The Emergency Medicine Association. She serves as the Associate Professor of Pediatrics at The Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Institute of Medical Sciences (Dr.RMLIMS. After completing her MBBS from Calcutta University, Kolkata she went on to get her MD in Pediatrics from the prestigious Benaras Hindu University in Varanasi.
“Dr. Thakur has done a phenomenal exercise in setting up PTRM based on fundamentals of my principles of Collaborative Creativity. Pediatric Injury care is very different from adult injury care and a specific training module is needed when the children with trauma need resuscitation. Combining simulation and sonography into the modular mix enhances the learnability quotient of PTRM. I am confident PTRM will save many lives of children with trauma who are the future of BHARAT.” Said INDUSEM CEO Dr. Sagar Galwankar.
