The 01 courses were started by Late Prof SR Naik as soon as the academic activity started in the Institute in the late 80s. The purpose of these courses, was to expose students to areas that have impact on Medicine but are not usually taught. Initially only the Biostatistics course was compulsory and later about 20 years ago, it was decided to have an additional mandatory course called foundation course . The objective of the foundation course is to introduce a new student to the Institute (duties and responsibilities, hospital information system , sample collection) communication with patients & colleagues, upkeep of good medical records and, basics of medical research and ethics etc. Over the years the number of optional courses have seen a nice mix of topics including scientific communication, computers, bioinformatics, photography, history of medicine, basic immunology, Genetics in clinical medicine, Medical ethics, cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, etc. This year we have started separate courses for PhD students which include cell biology, research methodology, stem cells, genomics, organoids, cell cell interaction etc. Currently due to COVID 19 all courses are being conducted online. We invite suggestions from all students and faculty to improve these courses. |
