The
Aligarh Summer University 2010 in profound memory of eminent
Nematologist and Professor Emeritus Abrar Mustafa at the Department
of Zoology, Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) was formally
inaugurated, says AMU official Zeeshan Ahmad.
Prof. Absar Mustafa, Coordinator of the Programme, while welcoming
the delegates said that many graduates are unable to gain admission
for advance studies in Western universities due to the lack of
proper guidance. He said that AMU Alumni felt the need to guide
under graduate and graduate students enrolled in AMU especially
through summer university programme.
Speaking on the occasion Prof. Asad Ahmad, University of Alberta
Edmonton, USA said that scientific education needs right guidance
and training with good environment.
He
said it is essential to get update with the standard of undergoing
scientific studies and research work at AMU.
Prof. Ashraf Khan, Director Surgical Pathology University of
Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, USA presented a paper on
breast cancer malignancy in females and males.
Prof. Khan said that American Cancer Society estimates that in 2009
approximately 192370 new cases of invasive breast carcinoma and
62280 cases of in-situ carcinoma were diagnosed among women while
1910 breast cancer cases were diagnosed among males.
He
said that advances in imaging techniques and increased use of
aspiration needle biopsy have greatly assisted in the early
detection and pre-operative evaluation. However, breast cancer among
women remains to be a major public health problem.
The
Dean, Faculty of Life Science Prof. Asad Ali Khan said that no
academic activities could be achieved without active and sincere
participation of faculty members and research scholars.
He
said that in today’s modern science, things are moving at the rapid
pace that any lethargy would definitely put us at disadvantage.
