1 Conferences National conference, Society for Nitric Oxide and Allied Radicals (SNOAR) 26th September, 2024 The National Conference of the Society for Nitric Oxide and Allied Radicals (SNOAR) was held on 26th September 2024 at the Hamdard Institute of Medical Sciences and Research (HIMSR), New Delhi, on the theme “Nitric Oxide: Impact on Health and Disease.” The meeting began with registration and an inaugural session that included a Quran recitation, lamp lighting, and welcome addresses by dignitaries including Dr. Sunil Kohli (Dean, HIMSR), Prof. Arunabha Ray (President, SNOAR), and Dr. G. N. Qazi (CEO, HIMSR).
The scientific programme featured keynote lectures, invited talks, and young investigator prize sessions. Eminent speakers from AIIMS, VPCI, IIT Roorkee, NIPER Mohali, CSIR-CDRI Lucknow, King Faisal University (KSA), and the University of Calcutta presented cutting-edge research. Dr. Sana Rehman (HIMSR) spoke on nitric oxide in post-traumatic stress disorder, while Prof. Arunabha Ray (VPCI) delivered the keynote address “Nitric Oxide: From Concept to the Clinic.” Prof. Kavita Gulati (VPCI) discussed new perspectives on bronchial asthma, and Prof. Kaushik Ghosh (IIT Roorkee) highlighted on-demand nitric oxide delivery using metal nitrosyl complexes. Dr. Suvro Chatterjee and Prof. Sanjay Ghosh (University of Calcutta) explored endothelial biology and yeast models, while Prof. S. S. Sharma (NIPER Mohali) and Prof. Jagavelu Kumaravelu (CSIR-CDRI, Lucknow) addressed therapeutic potential in stroke and myocardial infarction. Prof. Gausal Azam Khan (King Faisal University) described nitric oxide as a “wounded second messenger,” and Prof. Krishnendu Acharya (University of Calcutta) examined plant–pathogen interactions. Additionally, Prof. Mohd. Iqbal Alam (HIMSR) presented on nitric oxide in preeclampsia, stressing its role in disease progression and its diagnostic potential in maternal health.
The conference also fostered young talent through oral and poster presentation competitions, where early-career researchers showcased their work on diverse aspects of nitric oxide biology.
The event concluded with a valedictory session and the annual general body meeting of SNOAR, marking a successful and impactful scientific gathering.
