The palliative care community of India honoured Dr Robert G.Twycross with a citation for his exceptional contribution to palliative care in India. It was presented to him by Dr Sukdev Nayak, president of IAPC, during the conference. Dr Twycross' contributions to the Indian palliative care scene span over 15 years. He frequently visited India twice a year, travelling throughout the country, lecturing and mentoring. Often he would lecture in other countries to raise funds for his work in India. Most palliative care physicians in India are either his students or his students' students. He gave the copyright of his book Introducing Palliative Care free so that a low cost edition could be produced in India for just $2.5. |
