Our scientist Dr. Rahul Gajbhiye delivered an insightful talk on “Epidemiology and Prevention of Snakebite Envenoming” at the webinar titled “Epidemiology and Clinical Management of Snakebite Cases in the Context of the National Action Plan for Snakebite Envenoming (NAP-SE)”, organized by the State Health Systems Resource Centre (SHSRC), Public Health Department, Maharashtra.
Over 125 Medical Officers from across Maharashtra participated in this clinical training session.
Dr. Gajbhiye discussed the global and national burden of snakebite, key barriers to control, community-level prevention strategies, and shared research and policy experiences from over a decade of work that contributed to integrating snakebite into national programs. He also highlighted future directions for snakebite treatment and research through MRHRU Vani.
Dr. Sadanand Raut, National SBE expert, elaborated on the clinical management of snakebite cases as per the NAP-SE guidelines.
The webinar was coordinated by Dr. Sanjay Deshmukh (Dy. Executive Director, SHSRC) and Dr. Swapnil Nimkar (Senior Consultant – R&D, SHSRC).
Kudos to the organizers and participants for strengthening Maharashtra’s response to this neglected yet critical public health issue.

Children of IPV-affected women faced increased stunting and undernutrition, underscoring the need for IPV prevention policies.
