INDO-AMERICAN SPINE ALLIANCE (IASA) The Indo-American Spine Alliance (IASA) is a not-for-profit organization with the mission to facilitate and promote collaborative interaction between spine professionals of Indian origin and other interested surgeons from India, America, and abroad to improve surgical education, further spine research, and advance care for patients afflicted with spine ailments in India. The vision for IASA is to become the preeminent source for open and transparent collaboration in research, education, and patient care among spine professionals of Indian origin. We believe a combination of didactic and in-depth bioskills training on emerging spine techniques, supported by a strong international and local faculty, separates this program from other educational opportunities. We welcome your attendance and look forward to your active participation. ALL INDIA INSTITUTE OF MEDICAL SCIENCE (AIIMS) The All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India has established a state-of-art research and training facility as part of its efforts to educate students and qualified professionals. The Cadaveric Training and Research Facility (CTRF) has been developed to provide learning opportunities that imitate realistic environments. The facility has been made possible through a generous grant from the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and the Department of Health Research (DHR) in New Delhi. CTRF has cadavers with organoleptic properties to simulate real life situations. Commonly used formalin embalmed cadavers are rigid and are of little use for surgical training. AIIMS forensic specialists have devised a novel method of whole body preservation where the cadaver remains soft for longer periods and the body tissues resemble living patients. All cadavers are rigorously tested for infectious diseas such as HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, etc. by our microbiologists before being transported to the CTRF. 2017 GM1016
