Team Chippin’ Away interviews Dr. Sunil Pandya on the life and work of Major-General Dr. S L Bhatia. He takes the listener through the history of medical institutions and medical research with Dr. Bhatia’s biography. The episode unveils Dr. Bhatia’s work in the field of medical research, his contributions to the field of pathology and introduces his views as a humanist. Extolled as one of the finest medical practitioners in the pre- and post-Independence period of India, Dr. Bhatia’s life indeed treads the fine boundary between real life and idealised reality.
The series, 'Rooh', is the outcome of a Foundation Project within the purview of the Archives and Museums Program of the India Foundation for the Arts in collaboration with the S.L. Bhatia History of Medicine Museum, Library and Archives, Bangalore, to explore the many themes of the History of Medicine. Part funding was also provided by the Parijat Foundation.
