Background of the Institution
The Assam Medical College is a historic institution that started functioning from the abandoned US Army base hospital from World War II in 1947. It was built from the legacy of the Berry White Medical School—which was founded in 1900 through the generous donations of British philanthropist Dr. John Berry White. The commemorative stamp was heavily championed by the local government to highlight its decades of producing distinguished alumni and advancing medical research in the region.
