Director's Message
Prof. Saiyad Shah Alam Director
The National Institute of Unani Medicine stands at the threshold of a transformative era. Under the stewardship of Prof. Saiyad Shah Alam, the Director, who assumed office on December 17, 2024, the institute envisions positioning itself as a global centre of excellence—championing the integration of Unani medicine into India’s mainstream healthcare system and elevating its relevance on the international stage. Prof. Saiyad Shah Alam's journey in Unani medicine is marked by purpose and passion. An alumnus of the distinguished Aligarh Muslim University, where he completed his BUMS and MS in Jarahat, he was shaped by an academic environment rooted in excellence, innovation, and integrity. This foundation laid the groundwork for a career committed to advancing Unani education, research, and surgical practice. From his early days in Deoband, Uttar Pradesh, to significant academic and clinical contributions at H.S.Z.H. Government Unani Medical College, Bhopal, and later at NIUM Bengaluru, where he joined in 2012 as Associate Professor and Head of the Department of Ilmul Jarahat, each phase has reinforced his resolve to elevate the Unani system. His pioneering efforts in laparoscopic surgery have demonstrated how traditional Unani wisdom can be seamlessly integrated with modern surgical advancements.
