Bangur Institute of Neurosciences,[lower-greek 1] also known as the Bangur Institute of Neurology and abbreviated BIN, is a government-run apex superspeciality institute/hospital located at 52/1A, Sambhu Nath Pandit Street, Bhawanipur, Kolkata, West Bengal. The institute is adjacent to and functionally attached to IPGMER and SSKM Hospital.[1][2] The institute is affiliated to the West Bengal University of Health Science.[3]

This is a government-sponsored neurological institute and a training centre in the field of neuroscience in West Bengal.[4][5] Patients are regularly referred here from various hospitals in West Bengal and adjoining states.[6] This hospital's research activities include studies into strokes, cognitive neuroscience, movement disorders, epilepsy, neuromuscular conditions (myasthenia), developmental disorders of the brain, Wilson's disease, electrophysiology, botulinium toxin, and neurogenetics.[7]

Controversies[edit | edit source]

Due to an inadequacy in the number of beds, patients have complained that even critical patients are often refused admission.[8]

On 26 May 2011, Shyamapada Ghorai, then director of BIN was suspended with charges of misconduct, insubordination and non-co-operation.[9][10] This was one of the first administrative actions taken by Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee.[10] Even after the surprise visit of the Chief Minister, the situation did not improve. According to a report published in The Telegraph (Calcutta) in June 2012, "A year and a fortnight after chief minister Mamata Banerjee suspended Shyamapada Ghorai from the post of Bangur Institute of Neuroscience (BIN) director – one of her first administrative actions since assuming office."[8]
