The last episode of the series summarises the many themes considered until now, and throws light on how the broader world evaluates the contributions of South Asia to the growth and development of modern-day medical systems and institutions. Dr Edwin Cosalan, drawing from his breadth of experience, helps situate and contextualise these contributions and elaborate on the importance of an active understanding of the history of medicine for healthcare providers and professionals, and on our way forward.

The series, 'Rooh', is the outcome of a Foundation Project within the purview of the Archives and Museums Program of the India Foundation for the Arts in collaboration with the S.L. Bhatia History of Medicine Museum, Library and Archives, Bangalore, to explore the many themes of the History of Medicine. Part funding was also provided by the Parijat Foundation.
