Prof. Dr. Muhammad Umar
Vice Chancellor RMUPatron in Chief RSRS
‘’The world is now a global village and it is the time to make research a top priority by the institutions of the country. I believe no institute can progress without research. Research is not only important at the graduate level but at the undergraduate level as well. It gives me pleasure to see the students of Rawalpindi Medical University taking special interest in research and we as office bearers should always provide our full support to the young minds.”
‘’Health research is only cognitive solution to ever growing health issues. Medical students are future health scientists and are supposed to carry forward the health research legacy. RSRS has high potential to supplement health research capacity & culture among medical students through many collaterals like conducting student’s need based short courses & workshops, holding & facilitating students’ participation in research competitions, setting student’s role in domestic research projects, developing national & international health research linkages, like many others.’’
