Guirurai Arakri and Vishal Rao from the HCG Cancer Hospital in Bengalur in 2025 were awarded a sought -after endowment grant in a significant recognition of Indian medical research at the global phase.
This means that the fourth award of Dr. Arakri’s fourth Baoms financing, which makes a doctor based in Kalaburagi the only non-BRIT research worker to achieve this performance-success, which underlines the international importance of his work on oral cancer and related disorders.
The grant will support the pioneering examination of the causes of oral submucosal fibrosis (eightf), a serious precancerous state, which is usually caused by the consumption of Gutka and Arecanut, leading to limited opening of the mouth and significant deterioration of life.
Prerequisites
While Aecanut has long been classified as the primary carcinogen associated with the Eighth, the recent Pilot Study of the Dr. Arakri challenges this long -term faith. Scientists suggest that other substances such as fluoride found in some smokeless tobacco products can play a more harmful role than they had previously understood.
“This research challenges long -term prerequisites,” Dr. Araki. “We are examining the possibility that fluoride and other elements in Gutku may be the same or more responsible than the walnut by ARECA.”
Dr. Vishal Rao emphasized the impact of human disorder and said: “The EIG seriously limits basic functions such as eating and speaking, leading to the suffering and increasing the risk of oral cancer.
The international project includes important co -workers such as Professor Peter Brennan (Great Britain), Dr. Antonio Celenton (University of Melbourne, Australia), Dr. KRISHNAN MULUGESAN (Chennai), Dr. Shekar Patel, Dr. Roopa Reddy and Dr. Satish, all under the guidance of the Arageri-Rao team.
With the initial financing of the secured and other expected support, the team is ready to make significant advances in the transformation of a global approach to the diagnosis and treatment of the “locked mouth” syndrome.
This prestigious award is not just a personal milestone for Dr. Arakri, but also the main step forward for Indian medical research on the international scene.
