Details Of Teaching Staff

Introduction

Physiology is the science of life. It is the branch of biology that aims to understand the mechanisms of living things, from the basis of cell function at the ionic and molecular level to the integrated behaviour of the whole body and the influence of the external environment. The emphasis on integrating molecular, cellular, systems and whole-body function is what distinguishes physiology from the other life sciences.

Aim and Objectives

The goal of teaching undergraduate students Medical Physiology is to provide a comprehensive knowledge of the integrated functions of the organ systems, which in turn helps understanding the basis of health and disease. With respect to the knowledge domain, students get equipped with the knowledge of the coordinated body function, the relative contribution of each organ system to the maintenance of the milieu interior, aspects of normal growth and development, physiological responses and adaptations to environmental conditions, the knowledge of the physiological principles underlying pathogenesis as well as treatment of disease. With respect to skills domain, the student becomes able to conduct experiments, designed for study of physiological phenomena and interpret experimental/investigative data, distinguish between normal and abnormal data, derived as a result of tests, which he/she performs and observes in the laboratory. At our institute we are committed to provide our students a high standard of teaching and evaluation, innovative methods of teaching and regular teaching schedule as per the new competency based UG curriculum.  Our mission is to equip the students with knowledge and understanding of normal bodily functions and to foster the development of professional skills through well designed curriculum; based on experiments, training and research.
