1. Introduction

The goal of Physiology is to explain the physical and chemical factors that are responsible for the origin, development and progression of life.
In Human Physiology, we attempt to explain the specific characteristics & mechanisms of the human body that makes it a living being.
Human physiology is taught in first year along with Human Anatomy & Human Biochemistry and understanding of Physiology forms the foundation of the medical knowledge which will be acquired later.

 1.      Services

The department of Physiology is involved in teaching Physiology to first year students of MBBS, BDS, BSc Nursing, Allied Health Sciences, MDS and PG in Human Physiology.

150 medical Students, 40 Dental Students, 100 Nursing Students, 100 Allied Health Science Students (BPT, BOT, BSc Opt, BSc MIT & BAT – 20 each) & 20 MDS Students along with 5 PG’s (Intake capacity) in Human Physiology are taught Physiology every year.

The mode of teaching for undergraduates is by Lectures, Practical’s and Tutorials. Department uses Problem Based Learning (PBL) and Self Study Group Discussion as Micro Teaching methods to teach Applied Physiology. 

Medical Students are exposed to basic research and publication by giving them Elective Topics for one month, where they do research and present their findings.

2.      Instruments

The following instruments are available in department for research activities

1.      Automated Lung Function Machine

2.      Single Channel ECG Machine

3.      Clinical Diagnostic Digital Audiometer

4.      Four Channel Digital Physiograph

5.      Computerised Cardiopulmonary Exercise System
