The St. Johns Research Institute (SJRI) is a part
of the St John’s National Academy of Health Sciences,
which is run by the CBCI Society for Medical Education.
From its inception St. John’s
set before it an ideal of excellence in academic courses as
well as service to society, as a result of which it has truly
become holistic both in its outlook and in its approach to
the problems of community health.
In 2000, the Academy decided
that its commitment to excellence in research required the
setting up of an Institute that was dedicated to the pursuit
of research and capacity development in St John’s. This
vision encompassed the improvement of the health of the community
and patients through research, and the development of a center
of excellence in medical research in India.
From this vision, a specific
mission for the SJRI was developed around Population Health.
