Invitation

Dear fellow alumni,

With COVID finally behind us and in accordance with the desire of our members, we will resume our in person biennial meetings at the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront, FL on October 6 and 7, 2023!

We have arranged for a stimulating CME program and exciting social activities for you and your families. The strength of our organization lies in our numbers. So, please spread word of the meeting and encourage as many classmates and fellow alumni as possible to attend.

Please register as soon as possible as this will facilitate planning greatly.

The registration is open for all JIPMER alumni who are currently residing in North America, and their family. [CLOSED]

For other situations, such as JIPMER students, residents, faculty, alumni visiting the US, or parents of alumni contact the organizer at jaana@jipmer.net for registration.

We have reserved a limited block of rooms at a hard to beat rate of $199/night (inclusive of a full breakfast for two! And discounted parking) for reservations made before September 15. These rooms are likely to sell out fast, and we may not be able to secure the same terms for additional rooms.
