The story of AKU-EB cannot be completed without Dr Camer Vellani whose relentless efforts in establishing the AKU Examination Board and its assessment philosophy helped us get where we are today – celebrating 10 years of our mission. Dr Camer Vellani is currently serving as the Distinguished University Professor Emeritus at the Aga Khan University, member of the Board of Directors of AKU-EB as well as the Advisory Committee.
Let’s hear what he had to say during a recent interview with AKU-EB.Please tell us something about your professional and academic background and your association with AKU?
“I was fortunate to have a good nurturing environment in childhood.. After completing secondary school from Karachi Grammar School in 1953, I was admitted to the University of Wales, School of Medicine and graduated in 1960. After post-graduate training in Medicine, Respiratory Diseases and Cardiology I returned to Pakistan in 1966.

Dear Gamer, I can remember you as a long term friend of my brother Michael
when you were both at Cardiff medical School, sadly Mike died some year ago and so did his only son Jonathan last year. In the papers was the Final Year Book for 1960 at Cardiff Medical School showing photos of his student friends.
I can always remember you extreme kindness to Mike, and lending him money until the next grant. I am not surprised you went on to much greater things and must be very proud of what you have achieved for teh good of others
I went on to work for Lloyds bank and will be 80 years old in October
Very best wishes Roger Povey
