N1 - Funding Information:
I was born and raised in Hisar, a small town in India. I received my bachelor of medicine and bachelor of surgery degrees from Amritsar Medical College and my medical degree from Maulana Azad Medical College in Delhi. As a part of my medical degree, I conducted clinical research on peptic ulcer disease under the tutelage of Professor H. K. Chuttani. Based on the recommendation of Martin Floch, Howard Spiro invited me to New Haven, Connecticut, for a fellowship in gastroenterology at Yale University's affiliated program at Saint Raphael Hospital. Although my visa status kept me from applying for an NIH training grant, my research training at Yale University was supported by Fredrick Rose, a grateful patient of Spiro's who wished to fund studies that might elucidate the pathogenesis of the Schatzki ring.
