Established in 1995, the Hirabai Cowasji Jehangir Medical Research Institute (HCJMRI) was founded with a vision to advance scientific research and enhance the quality of life, particularly for children and families. Situated within the Jehangir Hospital campus in Pune, HCJMRI functions as a sister organization to the hospital, with a dedicated focus on improving child health and well-being.

HCJMRI is a multidisciplinary research institute recognized by the Directorate of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR), Government of India. Our key areas of research and intervention include Nutrition, Growth and Endocrine Disorders in Children, Type 1 Diabetes, Maternal and Child Health, Osteoporosis, and other Non-Communicable Diseases.

As part of our commitment to social impact, HCJMRI offers extensive support to children and families affected by Type 1 Diabetes. This includes free access to insulin, blood glucose monitoring strips, and glucometers, along with comprehensive diabetes education and continuous medical care. Our team also conducts regular home and school visits to ensure families receive consistent guidance and assistance.

Over the years, HCJMRI has emerged as a trusted leader in pediatric diabetes care, working to empower families and improve long-term health outcomes. Our research and clinical initiatives are led by a team of skilled professionals who remain responsive to the evolving healthcare needs of our community.

Our efforts are made possible through the generous support of donors and partner organizations. Under the guidance of our governing body and executive leadership, HCJMRI continues to make a lasting difference in the lives of the children and families we serve.
