In 2012, Dr. Arpandev Bhattacharyya along with Dr. Ganpathy Bantwal and Dr. Vageesh Ayyar S, all, Professors of Endocrinology, formed a group in order to spread knowledge about Diabetes and Hormonal disorders among practising doctors, patients and their families. Several workshops and meetings were conducted which received positive feedback. Encouraged by the feedback, the group, in 2016 decided to form a trust (Dreem) which would dedicate more time, effort and resources for these activities.
