The toppers, who were awarded gold medals at the 20th convocation of NIMHANS, said they owed their success to their alma mater.

Manasa S. Seshadri, who bagged the Dr. D.L.N. Murthy Rao Memorial Prize for the best outgoing student in Diploma in Psychiatry-2015, said, “I always wanted to pursue higher studies in NIMHANS, and this is the culmination of my dream.”

Suhas G., who was awarded the Silver Jubilee Award for the best outgoing student in MD Psychiatry-2015, said there should be more institutions like NIMHANS to meet the shortage of neurologists.

Manjunath M., who was awarded the Dr. Anisya Vasanth Memorial Award for the best postgraduate resident in Neurology-2015, said although neurology is tough and challenging, the training that he got at NIMHANS made him confident of serving the community.
