The report also provides an overview of our financial results for the year. It was a privilege for me to take up the role of Director of this prestigious Institute in October 2018 succeeding Prof. S.R. Savithri who had led the Institute since 2011. I appreciate and acknowledge Prof. Savithri's eight years of hard work and dedication as the Director of the Institute. I also extend my gratitude to the other staff members who superannuated in 2018-19 for their valuable contributions and support towards the progress of the Institute. Over this past year, the Institute continued to enhance, strengthen, and advance teaching and learning, research, clinical care and public education pertaining to communication disorders. The highlights of the year include Workshop on Speech Processing for Voice, Speech and Hearing Disorders, a satellite event of Inter-speech 2018, supported by the International Speech Communication Association, which brought together more than 50 researchers from 12 countries working in the areas of speech, language, hearing disorders and speech processing. The year also witnessed the launch of a number of new systems, facilities and services such as Eye-tracking Lab, Central Computer Centre with state-of-the art technologies, Illumina MiSeq Next Generation Sequencer, Equipment for Vestibular System Evaluation, Grammarly Writing Support Tool and events like Graduation Day, Summer Camp for Children with Special Needs, Institute Annual Day and International Day of Persons with Disabilities. It is a matter of proud that we offered 16 long-term training programmes ranging from diploma to post-doctorates in the past year and continued to recruit exceptionally talented and diverse students by conducting national level entrance examinations and based on the merit obtained in the qualifying examinations. In addition, we organized 296 orientation/ short-term training programmes and 29 conferences and workshops on various aspects of communication disorders and thousands of persons from across the country benefitted from them. Our academics undertook a broad range of exciting research pertaining to the field of communication disorders and allied areas. Seventy two funded research projects were initiated/ ongoing/ completed in different departments of the Institute with the funding from the Govt. of India agencies like Department of Science and Technology, Indian Council of Medical Research 3 and University Grants Commission in addition to the Institute funding. Also our scholars published 91 scientific papers in reputed peer-reviewed journals and presented 139 papers in national and international conferences. In addition to these, they had contributed to the field by way of delivering guest lectures, serving various scientific committees and peer-reviewing scientific papers for journals and conferences and writing professional books and book chapters. It is very gratifying to report that during 2018-19 we served more than 70,000 persons with communication disorders from across the country and many of them availed specialized clinical services. In addition, we delivered tele-intervention services for persons from remote areas and provided pre-school services for children with special needs. As you will learn from this report, the Institute made remarkable progress in its outreach services during the past year by opening two newborn screening centres at Bhagalpur, Bihar and Lucknow, U.P. , and the 6th Outreach Service Centre of the Institute at Kalaburagi, Karnataka. Shri. Ashwini Kumar Choubey, Hon. Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of India inaugurated the Kalaburagi Outreach Service Centre on 3rd February 2019. A record number of 40734 neonates across the country were screened for communication disorders during the year. Our faculty, staff and students continued to shine with many awards bestowed during the year. Sixty of them received Best Scientific Paper Presentation Award in national and international conferences, Dr. Animesh Barman, Professor in Audiology, received Padmashree Prof. S. Rameswaran Endowment Oration Award, myself received the Rais Ahmed Memorial Lecture Award and Braithwaite's Oration Award and Dr. S.Venkatesan, Professor in Clinical Psychology and Dr. Alok Kumar Upadhyay, Associate Professor in Special Education were honored for the service they rendered in their respective field.

I am deeply grateful for the ongoing hard work and dedication of the Institute staff and students who I know will join me in carrying out the mission and vision of the Institute. It is together that we will achieve the greatest success in changing lives of persons with communication disorders. Not least, my sincere thanks to our Executive Council, Finance and Academic Sub-Committees for all their guidance and support. Sincerely, Dr. M.
