Breaking: JIPMER to launch India's first integrated MBBS-BAMS course
The Union Government is set to integrate allopathic and Ayurvedic medicine under one academic roof with plans to launch India's first MBBS-BAMS course at the Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER) in Puducherry. Announcing the plan recently, Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare and AYUSH (Independent Charge), Prataprao Jadhav, said that the course is at the conceptual stage, with a new syllabus in development.
Medical Dialogues has been extensively reporting on the government’s initiatives towards the integration of modern medicine with Indian systems of medicine, along with the resulting backlash. Back in 2022, the National Medical Commission (NMC) made it mandatory for all medical colleges to have a "Department of Integrative Medicine Research".
