Vaidya Balendu Prakash
Padmashri Awardee · 14 March 1959 — 7 August 2026 · Founder & Founding Organising Secretary, IPCI 2027
From 1997 onwards he systematically documented patients treated through the protocol his father had developed, building a longitudinal cohort of more than 2,800 patients. He envisioned IPCI as the next step: a multidisciplinary scientific platform to critically examine the evidence, address unanswered questions and foster collaboration across disciplines and systems.
