Dancing with Sycophancy

The spectacle raises some serious questions about the state of academic integrity and leadership.

We need a referral system that works

Acknowledging the current strain on the reference system is the first step.

Who will listen to the woes of trainee doctors?

The trainee doctors at BSMMU have been demanding an increase of monthly allowance from Tk 20,000 to Tk 50,000 – a demand which is justified.

A super specialised hospital that serves no one

BSMMU must ensure its new unit is ready to serve the public without any further delay

Organ donation pioneer Sarah shows the way forward for others

Sarah showed the way

Seven people, including Vice-Chancellor of   Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) Prof Sharfuddin Ahmed,   have announced they would donate their organs after death, following in the footsteps of   Sarah Islam – the first cadaveric organ donor in the country.

Sara’s gift to humanity should inspire us

Popularising posthumous organ donation can save many lives

Humanity was all she believed in

Twenty-year-old Sara Islam’s consent to donate her organs after her death has given new life to four, two with completely damaged kidneys and two without eyesight, in the country’s first successful transplantation of organs from a brain-dead patient.

Lives deprived of hope

Twelve-year-old Rubaiya’s world is limited to her bed. A resident of the Korail slum in the capital, she lives in a dark windowless tin-shed shanty. She has not seen a glimpse of the sky in the last three years. The last time she went on a trip outside was seven years ago, at her grandmother’s home in Cumilla.
