Human Physiology is the department where the students learn about the normal functioning of all the systems of the body at gross as well as the cellular and molecular level. This knowledge helps the students to learn and understand the variation in the normalcy and basis of pathology, pharmacology and medicine. Physiology hence also called as mother of clinical subjects. It is the  only branch of medicine which has received most of the NOBEL PRIZES.  The students learn the basic clinical skills, hematological investigations, pulmonary and cardiac function tests, interpretation of ECG in Physiology before going to the clinical subjects. The department also boasts of having single and multi channel digital physiographs, computerized spirometer, VEP, BERA, NCV, Autonomic function lab all of which are used in the research by the faculty members and are also to demonstrate various electrophysiological recordings to the students. The dedicated faculty is always ready to help the students to make the subject interesting and more meaningful.

Facilities

The Department of Physiology, is located on the first  floor of the college building of SSIMS.

• The department is actively involved in teaching the undergraduate & post graduate students and research.
• Teaching is carried out in the form of didactic lectures, practicals and demonstrations, tutorials, seminars, microteaching; problem based learning, group discussions, quiz sessions and Journal clubs, early clinical exposure.
• Further to add another jewel in the crown, we have received the permission from MCI to begin the post graduate course in Physiology (MD Physiology)
• We have lately acquired the animal simulator for teaching the animal experiments to the students

Infrastructure include

• Air-conditioned lecture theatre with interactive audio-visual system
• Hematology laboratory
• Clinical Physiology laboratory
• Amphibian laboratory
• Mammalian laboratory
• Research laboratory

Our mission is to provide outstanding education and training in pharmacology to students that will develop a competent medical graduate equipped with contemporary knowledge in pharmacology and therapeutics who can provide safe, effective and economic therapeutic care to the society and to maintain this competence throughout his/her professional life.

Apart from didactic lectures, teaching also involves practical classes in pharmacology, practical in experimental pharmacology, demonstrations, tutorials and group discussions on clinically oriented problems, drug display and seminars related to pharmacology. We also encourage students to actively take part in research.

Objective

The objectives of the course are to impart the knowledge of clinical pharmacology and practical therapeutics, including fundamental principles, mechanisms of action, rationales for drug selection, optimization of drug therapy, and assessment of therapeutic efficacy and outcome. This includes addressing the following aspects of clinical pharmacology and practical therapeutics:

• To review the principles of clinical pharmacokinetics.
• To enhance students’ ability to evaluate critically, and use effectively, current information sources on clinical pharmacology and therapeutics.
• To know the “essential drugs” and their common side effects and practice rational use of medicines.
• To encourage students to take part in pre-clinical toxicity studies, clinical and basic research.
• To present students with practical information on the clinical pharmacology of the major drug classes and the application of such information to the solution of therapeutic problems.
• To apply the knowledge imparted to individually carry out preventive and curative medicine with respect to the commonly encountered health problems in the community.
• To know the basics of pharmacovigilance and apply the same in detecting and reporting adverse drug reactions.

Pathology is the study and diagnosis of disease through examination of organs. tissues, bodily fluids, and whole bodies [autopsies].

General Pathology : General pathology is a broad and complex scientific field which seeks to understand the mechanisms of injury to cells and tissues, as well as the body's means of responding to and repairing injury. Areas of study include cellular adaptation to injury, necrosis. inflammation, wound healing and neoplasia. It forms the foundation of pathology, the application of this knowledge to diagnose diseases in humans and animals. The term "general pathology” is also used to describe the practice of both anatomical and clinical pathology

Facilities Available

Department of Pathology is committed to offer every essential diagnostic facility for patient care and management. with emphasis on strict quality assurance for every section of the Department. Presently. the Department provides Hematology. Clinical Pathology. Cytology and Histopathology services.
The Cytopathology section provides facility for Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology [FNAC], cervical smear screening, fluid cytology and cell blocks.
The Hematology and Clinical Pathology services include complete hemogram, hemoparasite detection, ESR, bone marrow aspiration and biopsy, reticulocyte count, basic coagulation workup, urine routine and microscopic examination and fluid cell counts.
The Histopathology section provides routine histopathology services, special stains (histochemistry) and opinion review on outside slides and blocks. In a few days facility for immunohistochemistry will be available in the Histopathology section of the Department.

Microbes are essential for maintaining life on Earth. They comprise more than 50% of the life-forms on our planet, yet only around 1% have been identified and studied. Pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses and parasites can attack our bodies and we rely on our immune system to protect us. Thus the relationship between microbes and immune cells is critical for our survival.

Microbes are used in producing foods such as cheese, wine, and beer, as well as many pharmaceutical, chemical and agricultural products. They are important for soil fertility and the decomposition of materials, but can also cause major diseases in humans, animals and plants. The harmful effects of some microorganisms link microbiology with immunology. Immunologists investigate how we can protect humans and animals from infectious diseases by using vaccines, and the role of the immune system in non-infectious diseases such as cancer.
