The society is run by an elected committee and is headed by a president and a secretary; S. L. Hoti[4] and J. K. Saxena being the incumbent office bearers.[5] They organize annual conferences where keynote addresses, award lectures, presentation of research papers, guest lectures and symposia are featured. Workshops and training sessions are also organized regularly for the benefit of young scientists working in Parasitology.[2][3][4] The society was the host of the second Global Meet on Parasitology, held at Hyderabad in 1997.[3]

gollark: That might make sense (restricted to the relevant folders, not losg and random stuff, at least).
gollark: What's a good way to manage all my services and stuff in a reasonably centralized fashion (yes, I know this is pretty vague)? I run many random webservices (some run in docker, they're all behind a reverse proxy (caddy)), having manually installed them, configured configuration, and in some cases set up service files for them, but I'm worried about the hassle restoring all this stuff would be in case of server failure and backing up all of `/` just seems inelegant. What I eventually want is to be able to, if my server or drives fail, redownload some scripts/configs/whatever, run some simple commands, load a backup of the relevant data and restart things.
gollark: <@404675960663703552> Random kind of late interjection: Ryzen can do (not the registered kind) ECC memory, though probably not on all boards. There's an ASRock one with IPMI and stuff which supports it.
gollark: Just buy 5 MacBooks, then, obviously.
gollark: I don't think they are great NAS choices.
