The Anatomy department is concerned with inculcating complete knowledge of General Human Anatomy to the students with special emphasis on head and neck by means of cadaver dissection and a detailed study of hard and soft tissues of the human body. The Department has a number of histology slides to enhance the students’ depth of knowledge in microscopic anatomy. The Department has a spacious dissection hall, demonstration hall and histology laboratory which are the highlights of the Department.
Medical Departments
Anatomy
Physiology
Physiology is concerned with specific mechanisms of Human body that make it a living being. The Department is well equipped with lab facilities for both clinical and hematological experiments which provide immense basic knowledge for clinical subjects.
Bio-Chemistry
Bio-Chemistry addresses the functioning of normal and diseased organisms from a bio-chemical point of view. The Department creates a strong base for the students to understand the role of bio-molecules (macro and micro molecules ) in normal growth, development, metabolic and physiological functions of various organs including liver, kidney, teeth etc
Oral Histology
Oral Cavity is the mirror of the body. In the first year of undergraduate program, the students are made familiar with the various oral structures, their microscopic features and functions. Practical hours involve carving of tooth anatomy and identification of oral structure and morphology
Pharmacology
Pharmacology is a science that deals with the action of the drug on human body and animals. The Department imparts practical and clinical knowledge to students for choosing and using drugs, in order to achieve improved therapeutics. The Department also undertakes various animal studies that can be extrapolated in the clinical setting helping in the advancement of medical therapeutics.
General Pathology and Microbiology
General Pathology is the branch of medicine treating the essential nature of disease especially of the changes in body tissues and organs caused by disease. Integrated teaching and interactive discussions make the students take active participation in the teaching learning programme.
Medical microbiology is the study of microbes (Bacteria, Fungi, Viruses and Parasites) that infect humans, the diseases they cause and their diagnosis , prevention and treatment . It also deals with the response of human host to microbial agents and their antigens.
General Medicine
The majority of medically compromised patients need good oral health; hence a working knowledge of the multitude of conditions is essential for dental professionals. The curriculum during the 3rd year of BDS includes training in General Medicine. The students acquire knowledge and skills by clinical exposure in cardiovascular, respiratory, neurological, endocrinal, metabolic, renal diseases and blood disorders.
General Surgery
General Pathology is the branch of medicine treating the essential nature of disease especially of the changes in body tissues and organs caused by disease. Integrated teaching and interactive discussions make the students take active participation in the teaching learning programme.
