Dr. Krishan Kumar Khullar an example of academia at the University of Carabobo, Venezuela

Abstract

This is a brief description of the scholarly biography and some anecdotes of Dr. Krishan Khullar, an academic who was an example for more than twenty classes of undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Carabobo. Born in 1939 in Punjab (India), he studied a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry and did his first postgraduate degree in Organic Chemistry and later completed his second postgraduate degree plus a PhD in Medicinal Chemistry in Alberta, Canada. A polyglot, researcher, a man of simple manners, correct in his procedures, a teacher who, 17 years after his death, continues to be the guiding light for different generations of health professionals who, in him, saw what "should be" is.
