Dear Professor Chanturia,

I am back in Pune after a memorable trip to Moscow. Thanks to you and your team, we thoroughly enjoyed our five day stay in Moscow.

I had a jam-packed schedule from the time I arrived in Moscow to when I got the flight back to India but it was all well worth it. It was indeed a well-organized congress and that is why it went without any major problems. There are always minor glitches in organizing such a mammoth event. Kudos to your team who had worked so hard to prepare for the congress. For me, it was not only a pleasant experience but these five days were also professionally rewarding in every sense of the term.

I would like to convey our heartiest congratulations to you and your team for doing such a wonderful job in organizing this memorable IMPC in Moscow.

Our grateful thanks to you and your colleagues for your very kind and gracious hospitality extended to us, during our stay in Moscow. I would like to take this opportunity to convey my personal thanks to Tamara, Maria and Svetlana with whom I had an opportunity to interact quite extensively not only during the congress but over the past few months since the last congress held in Quebec City. I am grateful to them for all the help and support.

I sincerely hope that Russia will not have to wait another 50 years for hosting the next IMPC in the country. Cheers.

With grateful thanks and warm regards
Pradip
IMPC Council member
