It was an honour and privilege to be part of SEOCON 2026, the International Conference of the Society of Endoscopic Otolaryngologists, held in Mangaluru. It was an incredible honor to have delivered the Late Shri Ramkrishna Vithal Parab Oration on “Skull Base Paragangliomas: State of the Art”, specially so because it was delivered in my hometown and in front of my father Dr. Kishore Chandra Prasad, my father who has been a mentor and inspiration through my life. I also enjoyed moderating a TBD demonstration by Prof Ravi Ramalingam and contributing as a Demonstrator, Speaker, and Judge across various academic sessions.
My sincere thanks to my dear friend Dr Mubarak khan, Sapna Ramkrishna Parab, Devi Prasad and Vadish and the Society of Endoscopic Otolaryngologists, Kasturba Medic al College, Manipal, and to all the organizers and distinguished faculty for the kind invitation, warm hospitality, and for organizing such a well-structured and academically enriching programme.
