QMed Completes Five Years of Launching QMedCourses

QMedCourses Turns 5 – Thanks to Your Support, We've Created Impact That Matters!

On June 14, 2020, right in the heart of the pandemic, we launched our ELearning platform – www.qmedcourses.in – built entirely through a “work-from-home” effort.

Today, we are proud to share that in just five years:

  • We have had around 45 institutions - small to large and a total of around 10,000 individuals register with us.
  • Our work was cited in the Journal of the Association of Physicians of India (JAPI)PMID: 39563131

  • Sri Manakula Vinayagar Medical College made it mandatory for PG theses to include a documented search strategy.

  • The Lancet Citizens’ Commission engaged us to coach researchers for guidance with search strategies for scoping reviews

  • Institutions like SMIMS (Sikkim) and GIMSR (Visakhapatnam) ensured that the majority of their students and faculty completed our courses and submitted certificates.

  • And six undergraduate students, after learning from QMedCourses, won a prize at a Rheumatology Conference for their systematic review poster!

This is just the beginning. We believe that the National Medical Commission (NMC) should mandate structured training in literature searching and referencing in every medical institution.

Do you agree? Would you like to be able to share ideas on how to take this to the NMC and beyond?


We’d love to hear from you.

Thank you for being part of our journey. You’ve helped us plant the seeds—together, let’s grow a nationwide movement.
