PHYSIOLOGY
Introduction
Physiology deals with the understanding of
mechanisms and functions ranging from cells to the
organ systems. The department of physiology was
started in the year 1949 when the medical college
was established to start the MBBS course. The
department has evolved as a PG department since
1973, and offers MD Physiology, M.Sc. and PhD.
Medical physiology programs.
The Department also imparts knowledge of physiology
to various Para medical courses including F.Y.B.
Physiotherapy, B.Sc. nursing and Lab technicians.
Faculties are involved in research in applied human
physiology since long. Special areas of research
interest are Autonomic function tests, Sleep
physiology, Nerve conduction studies, Pulmonary
function tests, Exercise physiology, Treadmill
stress testing, and Physiological effects of yoga.
