GMERS MEDICAL COLLEGE, GODHRA, PANCHMAHAL

 

 

GOAL

The goal of teaching of undergraduate in physiology is to provide the student comprehensive knowledge of the normal functioning of organ systems of body so they can understand the physiological basis of health and disease.

Objectives;

Knowledge

At the end of year student should be able to

  1. explain the normal functioning of all the organ systems and their interactions for well-coordinated total body function.
  2. assess the relative contribution of each organ system to the maintenance of the milieu interior.
  3. elucidate the physiological aspects of normal growth and development.
  4. describe the physiological response and adaptations to environmental stresses.
  5. list the physiological principles underlying pathogenesis and treatment of disease.

 SKILLS

At the end of the course, the student should be able to:

  1. conduct experiments designed for the study of physiological phenomena.
  2. interpret experimental/investigative data.
  3. distinguish between normal and abnormal data derived as a result of tests which he/she has performed and observed in the laboratory.

(iii) INTEGRATION

At the end of the integrated teaching the student should acquire an integrated knowledge of organ structure and function and its regulatory mechanisms.
