Biography

AIIMS Delhi

Ravinder Goswami, after earning his bachelor's degree in medicine from Maulana Azad Medical College, continued at the institution to complete his MD and secured a DM in endocrinology from the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Delhi.[2] He did his post-doctoral work by joining AIIMS in 1992, working under Narayana Panicker Kochupillai and has since been associated with the institution. In between, he had two sabbaticals; first at the University of Newcastle under Patricia Crock and later, at Harvard Medical School at the laboratory of Edward M. Brown. At AIIMS, he served as the sub-dean of research during 2011–13 and is a professor at the department of endocrinology and metabolism.[3][4]

Goswami lives in East AIIMS campus, in New Delhi.[5]

Legacy

Goswami's studies have been focusing focused on clinical endocrinology and he has carried out research on diseases such as hypocalcemia and idiopathic hypoparathyroidism.[6] His studies on vitamin D deficiency covered etiopathogenesis and gravity of the disorder across the population and his work was the first of its kind in India.[6] His research revealed that vitamin D deficiency among Indian population is due to their dark skin (which prevented formation of vitamin D by blocking ultra violet rays) as well as inhibition of over-expression of Calcitriol receptor gene,[7] resulting in inadequate bio-adaptation.[8] He advocated against treating the nutritional deficiency through supplements and advised exposure to sunlight as a remedial measure.[9][10] His work on idiopathic hypoparathyroidism assisted in widening the understanding of the disease with regard to its clinical signs such as parathyroid spondyloarthropathy, basal ganglia calcification and development of hyperphosphatemia.[2] His studies have been documented by way of a number of articles[11][note 2] of which many have been listed by online article repositories such as Google Scholar[12] and ResearchGate.[13] Besides, he has contributed chapters to books published by others[14][15] and his work has drawn citations from other authors.[16][17] He has also presented his research at medical forums including the National Symposium on Nutrition and Bone Health of Nutrition Foundation of India held in 2007.[18] and serves as an editorial associate for the Annals of the National Academy of Medical Sciences (India).[19]

Awards and honors

The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research awarded Goswami the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize, one of the highest Indian science awards in 2008.[20] The Indian Academy of Sciences elected him as a fellow the same year[21] and he became an elected fellow of the National Academy of Sciences, India in 2010.[22]
