Navanihal (Karnataka), July 10, 2024: Sri Sathya Sai University for Human Excellence (SSSUHE) and The University of Trans-Disciplinary Health Sciences and Technology (TDU) have signed an MoU for addressing prevalent diseases such as diabetes and cancer through holistic nutritional solutions.

The partnership also focuses on developing teaching modules that emphasise human values like ethics, compassion, and empathy in both undergraduate and postgraduate education.

On the partnership, Sadguru Sri Madhusudan Sai – Founder of SSSUHE, said, "For Sri Sathya Sai University for Human Excellence and Sri Madhusudan Sai Institute of Medical Sciences and Research collaborating with Trans-Disciplinary Health Sciences and Technology is an honour and a privilege. This MOU is more than just a list of clauses being exchanged; it is a platform for collaboration between the East and West, bringing together diverse knowledge systems and mindsets to provide the greatest care possible for patients and society as a whole.”

Nutrition research forms a cornerstone of this partnership, with a focus on developing innovative treatments for non-communicable diseases. These solutions will blend ancient Ayurvedic principles with contemporary research, aiming to bring holistic health solutions to the forefront of medical practice.

Dr Darshan Shankar, Vice Chancellor of TDU, said, “While TDU has been around for 30-35 years, the work that has been done in the last ten years in the areas of healthcare, education, and nutrition via Sri Madhusudan Sai is an example of what only love can accomplish. While there are many different knowledge systems in the world, including indigenous practices, we have mostly been using Western systems. Nonetheless, we have a vast array of native systems from many nations, including Africa and India. The signing of this MoU will increase the momentum of progressing this ideology.”

Sri Sathya Sai University for Human Excellence aims to provide free-of-cost quality higher education of global standards of excellence based on ancient Indian ethos and contribute individuals of competent hands, brilliant heads, and compassionate hearts for universal welfare.

Its mission is to establish best-in-class infrastructure in rural areas for the promotion, assimilation, and dissemination of knowledge; to impart high-quality subject knowledge with an orientation towards research and innovation; to nurture an environment that instils a sense of selfless service, love for fellow beings and deep-rootedness in Indian culture and ethos; and to prepare the next generation of leaders in every sphere of human society.
