Oh wow, that looks both fascinating and important.

doesn't it? I doubt I can make it, but am hoping there'll be publications out of it.

I was hoping to make it too, but can't.

Bornat et al have already done a few publications on their unfortunately abbreviated SAG project (South Asian Geriatricians) and have a load coming out soon in other journals:

# Bornat, J. Henry, L. Raghuram P. (2009) 'Don't mix race with the specialty': interviewing South Asian overseas-trained geriatricians. Oral History Journal, 38, 1.
# Bornat, J. Henry, L & Raghuram, P. (2008) Overseas-trained South Asian doctors and the development of Geriatric Medicine. Generations Review. 18 (3) http://www.britishgerontology.org/08newsletter3/education_careers.asp.
