PATNA: Rajendra Memorial Research Institute of Medical Sciences (RMRIMS), a Patna-based premier medical research institute of Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), has been accorded affiliation by Calcutta University for Ph.D and other academic activities.

A full academic team of Calcutta University had visited the institution last month and had inspected institute's research achievements as well as modern research facilities and number of students working for the Ph.D programmes here, according to RMRIMS director P Das.

With this, now the students of Bihar have a choice to conduct their research work under Calcutta University while working at RMRIMS, Patna. It would help in stopping Bihari students from going to Calcutta or other places for better academic institutions.
