Dr Sockalingam presented at Grand Rounds last year, it was quite evident that he had unique expertise the interface between Psychiatry and Medicine. Further, his academic involvement in both nationally and internationally is quite remarkable at this stage in his career. Further, he has spearheaded numerous new programs and initiatives at the university. The sky is the limit for Dr Sockalingam and I wish him continued success.
