In Memoriam

P. Prithvi Raj, MD, DABIPP, DABPM, FIPP
September 13, 1931 – February 27, 2016

It is with great sadness that we announce to all of you that our beloved Founding Father Prof. Dr. Prithvi Raj passed away peacefully at his home on February 27, 2016 at 3:30 PM local Cincinnati time, surrounded by his family.

Prithvi Raj asked that you remember his mission by only closing your eyes. He expressed the strong wish that from now on WIP can further grow in its mission!
