What is it?
FOGSI ICOG
Satellite School is a training course for Post Graduate students, in collaboration with the Indian Space Research |
 |
|
| Organisation (ISRO) and supported by the Ethicon Institute of Surgical Education, Johnson & Johnson Medical.
FOGSI ICOG has arranged to set up satellite dishes in medical colleges in the country. The installation will be carried out by MCBC, Modern Communication & Broadcast System on behalf of Ethicon Institute of Surgical Education, Johnson & Johnson Medical Division. The course is being conducted from the ISRO/BISAG studios and is being transmitted by satellite to all the medical college enabling students to attend the course in their own colleges. The course is being conducted on the 4th Sunday of every month for duration of 8 hours as per the schedule, which is planned & intimated to various in advance.
How & Where is it run?
The scientific session is conducted by 2 teams consisting of Professors & teaching faculty of various medical colleges from different part of the country, FOGSI members & members of the Managing Committee of FOGSI. Each team consists of a senior faculty along with an Associate/Assistant Professor/Lecturer from his/her unit along with a post graduate student. The program is interactive and is conducted like a mock examination. Specimens, X-Ray and ultrasound pictures, videos, instruments etc. are all discussed. In short, a subject is covered completely in a period of 3 hours in a practical way followed by Q & A from students from other centres. 2 such sessions are held once a month.
Various Professors along with their teams have participated and various topics of interest to PG students have been covered
How it benefits the students? How does one attend it?
The "FOGSI-ICOG Satellite School" has been initiated in October 2006. Since then the program has been progressing well and has been found to be extremely useful to a large number of post graduate students.
The unique feature of this programme is that the whole interactive session is attended by students & teachers in their own city/town in familiar surroundings of their own institution in company of their colleagues & teachers.
Centres of Participation
Since its inception in late 2006 and till date various Medical Colleges/Hospitals of the Country have installed the Satellite Dish and are downloading the programme for their P.G. students & teachers.

| Summary |
| This programme of tele-medicine is quite interesting and can reach large number of students & teachers, in the comfort of their own city and institution. FOGSI-ICOG is trying hard since the last three years to popularize it. Unfortunately, it is taking longer time then expected to reach to the target audience. I, on behalf of the ICOG Chairperson Dr. Duru Shah & all team members, take this opportunity to appeal to all FOGSIANS to take advantage of this unique satellite linked educational programme & inform all your colleagues attached to private or Govt. medical colleges or any teaching institution. Kindly ask them to contact one of us either at ICOG office or directly. We will assist them to install the dish free of cost. |
