The department was established in 1988 under the guidance of Professor Dr. N. A. M. S. Sheikh.
This department deals with ---
I) UG teachingin Biochemistry
II) PG teaching in Biochemistry
III) Research work
IV) Central Clinical Laboratory, Biochemistry section, perform various Biochemical investigations of patients visiting Dr. Shankarrao Chavan Govt. Medical College & Hospital, Vishnupuri, Nanded.
1) The primary mission of the Department is to prepare students with an excellent foundation in Clinical Biochemistry so as to enable them to succeed in their chosen endeavors may it be medicine or any allied health sciences.
2) To provide Laboratory services to patients attending Dr. Shankarrao Chavan Govt. Medical College & Hospital, Vishnupuri, Nanded.
3) To undertake various research projects in the department.
1) The Department of Biochemistry is dedicated to understanding fundamental Biochemical processes and translating these to clinical care.
2) Upgradation of Biochemistry Department with modern equipments required in teaching and clinical investigations in the clinical laboratory - A TURN KEY PROJECT must be undertaken to provide the sophisticated and modern facilities for the patient care
In TURN KEY PROJECT all the instruments should be serially arranged in the centralized air conditioned clinical laboratory and instruments from colorimeter, spectrophotometer, semi autoanalyzer, fully autoanalyzer, Electrolyteanalyzer, Blood gas analyzer, Fully automated Immunoassay analyzer and other related instruments required should be arranged in one and same roof with suitable infrastructure facilities .
For this upgradation expected expenditure is approximately up to Rs. 5 Cr.
1. MBBS students 150/Year.Department conducts lectures and practicals programs as per MUHS,Nashik guidelines. Departments also conducts internal and university exams and prepares internal assessment .Knowledge of students also boosted by regular seminars, quiz competitions ,Case discussions etc.
2.Bachelor of Paramedical Technology (BPMT) -Department conducts lectures and practical programs as per MUHS,Nashik guidelines.
1. M.D Biochemistry: 02 students/year.Post graduate teaching and training program consist of working in clinical biochemistry including1 month training in clinical pathology and microbiology .In addition post graduate students have the assignments of investigations.They participate in regular weekly teaching sessions of Post graduate activities, slide seminars, monthly journal reviews, case presentations, microteachings etc. Also didactic lectures for M.D students are conducted in collaboration with other colleagues.
2. Diploma in Medical Lab Technology (PG- DMLT) - The course consist of 18 months, first 1 year consist of lectures, practicals and regular practical training in various laboratories. Last 6 months is all practical training in laboratories.( As Per MUHS,Nashik guidelines.)
3. MPHN (Nutrition)- The course consist of 2 yrs training in the form of lectures in therotical and practical aspects of clinical biochemistry. Internal exams and oral presentations in the form of seminars are regularly conducted by the department.
