Message from President, IPHA WB State Branch

Dear Members and Colleagues,

It's my pleasure to share with you the highlights of our activities over the past six years and give you a glimpse of what's in store for the future. Over the last six years, IPHA West Bengal has worked tirelessly to promote public health and advance the cause of preventive and social medicine. We've organized numerous conferences including National IPHACON 2023, workshops and training programs, and have been actively involved in various public health initiatives. We have released research grants to several young Medicos in the past few years.

As we look to the future, we're excited about our upcoming programs, including our annual conference and public health awareness campaigns. We're committed to continuing our work in promoting public health and making a positive impact on our community. Thank you for your support and participation in our endeavors."
