DETAILS OF CONTRIBUTIONS TO SOCIETY Some of the major initiatives of Prof. S.M. Chandramohan are:

• Instrumental in starting the ‘Transplant clinic’ at Madras Medical College and Rajiv Gandhi Government General Hospital. First Government Institution in our State.

• Instrumental in starting the ‘Obesity Clinic’ at Madras Medical College and Rajiv Gandhi Government General Hospital. First Government Institution in our State.

• Launch of 24 hour helpline - +91 94449 01234 and email consultation facility on gastrointestinal diseases at the Government General Hospital, Chennai - a first for a government institution – ghgastro@gmail.com and ghgastro@tn.gov.in

• Partnership with a charitable organisation to provide pain and palliative care to cancer patients.

• Public outreach programmes for awareness building – Anti-tobacco and anti-alcohol day in 2009 and 2008. Students were encouraged to participate in competitions on these themes, to enhance their social involvement.

• Cancer survivors’ day and International Women’s Day held in 2008, to bring about awareness on the nature of diseases, prevention and cure.

• Suicide prevention day was held in 2007, again with a focus on students who are, anecdotally, found to be at high risk. They are vulnerable when confronted with extraordinary pressures such as performance in examinations.

• Outreach programmes held in remote rural locations, to generate awareness as well as set best practice for local medical professionals and other staff on timely referral of patients to hospitals for various conditions. One such programme was held in 2005 in the aftermath of the tsunami which also provided short-term care and counselling for those affected. In 2001, a programme was held in the hill town of Udhagamandalam to help tribal residents, among others, and similarly in Kancheepuram district of Tamil Nadu.

• A charitable trust in the field of gastroenterology started was started and it continues to help patients – the GE Care Trust.

• Outreach support group is being run for a specific group of patients, the Esophageal Patient Support Organisation (EPSO).
