CRISMED Annual Research and Education Symposium (CARES) 
traces its origins to 2014, when it began as Compendium an  initiative envisioned by the then Deputy Director, Dr Jeyaraj.
The   Principal at the time, Dr Bobby John and a committed team of faculty members. Their vision was simple yet profound: to create a platform where research could be shared, celebrated, and used to inspire. 
In 2015, Compendium evolved into a full-fledged symposium, introducing its first competitive category, Original Research. What began as a poster-based event steadily grew in both scale and scope. 
By 2017, the symposium expanded to include additional competitive categories, such as Public Research, supported by a dedicated core faculty committee that curated submissions from across Christian Medical College Ludhiana. Like many academic activities worldwide, CARES was paused during the COVID-19 pandemic. 
However, in 2025, it was revived by the CSRC (CMC LUDHIANA STUDENT RESEARCH CLUB) as the 6th CARES Symposium, marking a renewed commitment to fostering undergraduate research and academic excellence.

Building on the legacy, CARES - The 7th CRISMED Annual Research & Education Symposium is scheduled to be held from 30th April to 2nd May 2026 at CMC Ludhiana. The symposium will continue to provide a vibrant platform for students and researchers to present their work, exchange ideas and foster innovation in medical research and education. 

For the first time, CARES 2026 is going to be a 3 day symposium expanding opportunities for research presentation and academic discussions. This event aims further to strengthen the culture of undergraduate research and academic excellence.
