Forum, were held on Sunday, August 10, at Hotel The Lalit, New Delhi. The
prestigious ceremony honoured 44 researchers and institutions for their
outstanding contributions to Indian medical science through original research

the Blackbuck Awards symbolised the perseverance, adaptability, and resilience
of Indian medical researchers—many of whom thrive despite funding constraints,
regulatory bottlenecks, and institutional challenges.

100+ high-quality nominations from across the country. After a rigorous
evaluation by an independent jury, winners were selected across categories
including the Pioneer Researcher Award, Rising Researcher Award, Stellar
Research Recognition, and Trailblazer Awards. The awardees represented leading
institutions such as AIIMS, PGIMER, ICMR, Apollo Hospitals, Medanta, and more.
The awards were presented in the esteemed presence
of dignitaries and medical leaders including Prof. (Dr.) Mahesh Verma (Vice
Chancellor, GGSIPU), Dr. B. Srinivas (Director General of Health Services),
Prof. Dr. Ashok Puranik (Executive Director, AIIMS Guwahati), Dr. Anil Goyal
(Executive Member, Delhi Medical Council).
The evening session featured Dr. Abhijat Sheth,
President of NBEMS and Chairperson of the National Medical Commission, who
delivered the keynote address, alongside Shri Harsh Malhotra (Minister of
State, Ministry of Corporate Affairs),
Running alongside the awards was the Medical
Research Summit 2025, which hosted dynamic sessions on translating clinical
trials into practice, harnessing AI in research, and reshaping the landscape of
medical publishing. Speakers included deans, department heads, journal editors,
and research leaders from across India.
Dr. Prem Aggarwal, Chairman of Medical Dialogues,
stated, "With the Blackbuck Awards, we brought Indian medical research
into the spotlight it rightfully deserves. We were proud to honour both
established and emerging research voices shaping the future of
healthcare."
