Location: Bir Hospital, Kathmandu
Institution: National Academy of Medical Sciences
Project: A. Faculty support, National Academy of Medical Sciences for DM medical oncology program. This is an ongoing project. Volunteer faculty are sent to NAMS for a 2-week period to teach DM and other learners. Dr. Neupane and the team are exploring e-volunteering (teaching from distance) once NAMS is ready to accept lectures. Anyone who is from Nepal and travelling there anyway and can spend 2 weeks in Kathmandu would be a great contribution for this program to train Nepali oncologists. This is done in coordination and support from health Volunteer Overseas (HVO).

B. A second program currently in discussion. BPKIHS Dharan has hired one of the Kathmandu program DM graduates recently with intent to develop an oncology program and initiate DM medical oncology. Dr. Neupane and the team is in discussion of how to support this program. Once it is finalized, they will start looking for volunteers. Oncologists who are from Nepal or know Nepal's health system well will be of great asset for this program as well. They are also exploring Nepali oncology nurses to support nursing oncology.

C. Dr. Neupane has done many Oncology consults for NAMS and on personal requests. This would be a good program to think of as ANMF Hem Onc group network matures. We can create a Hem Onc and palliative care force to support education and clinical care support
