A new initiative

Ever since we came to MOSC Medical college, Anna has been engaged in  stimulating the students for 
conducting small research projects on their own. Finally 22 students have submitted research projects to the Indian Council for Medical Research for receiving a grant.

The process of preparing the students was most refreshing for Anna. It was a rewarding and learning experience. Both of us realised how resourceful the students could become if they are helped and supported.

Anna had  several individual meetings with each student which led to an incremental interest and capacity building.

After the students made the on-line submission of the projects, Anna was for a surprise. She was  given a thank you card with each student expressing gratefulness in a touching way. 

Two days back, Anna had the students come over for an evening of games and conversation. I noticed how these students have grown to be communicative and conversational through this exercise. 

What you do to others would touch and transform the. Humans fear loneliness and rejection. They thrive in an environment of encouragement and appreciation. 

We value such contacts with students because they bring fullness to our lives. Students would blossom if they receive the care and counsel they look for.
