A guiding light in cancer early detection and a mentor to Snehita

We mourn the passing of Dr. Rengaswamy Sankaranarayanan, a global pioneer in cancer prevention and early detection. As our mentor and key advisor, his influence shaped many of our initiatives, including the Snehita Brisk Tool, MOncoEd Project, and ASCO Project.

Dr. Sankaranarayanan's unwavering commitment to practical, compassionate healthcare—especially his advocacy for clinical breast examination as a cornerstone of early detection in low-resource settings—continues to inspire our mission. His humility, brilliance, and fatherly guidance touched our hearts and strengthened our resolve.

"We carry forward his vision with quiet strength and immense gratitude, honoring his legacy through every woman empowered and every life touched."

Rest in peace, Sankar sir. Your spirit lives on in our commitment and care.

Dr. Rengaswamy Sankaranarayanan's contributions to cancer prevention and early detection have touched countless lives worldwide. His legacy continues through the work of organizations like Snehita Women's Health Foundation, which he mentored and guided with his expertise and compassion.
