Therefore, it is very important to have an in depth knowledge of Biochemistry for M.B.B.S. Students and practicing doctors as well. The knowledge and skills in Biochemistry are of paramount importance in differentiating health from diseases. The clinicians have a full gamut of biochemical tests for judicious selection for diagnosing various pathological states. Hence, in addition to imparting knowledge and skills of Biochemistry to the U.G. Students, the department has well developed Clinical Biochemical and research labs.
Under Graduate Teaching
