Department of Pharmacology provides advanced training in various aspects of pharmacology, molecular biology, pre-clinical & clinical drug development and Pharmacotherapeutics.
Department comprises of a diverse group of faculties who are highly qualified and experienced and work to advance the forefronts of new knowledge to develop novel therapeutic approaches for treatment of diseases. The scope of the department is to provide cellular and molecular pathways in living systems as the first step towards a greater understanding of disease and effective treatment. The development of new and successful effective drugs requires advancement and insights generated by scientific research for the students of D.Pharm, B.Pharm, M.Pharm and Pharm.D. This perspective makes our students are adhere in a wide range of careers and our program is committed to developing leaders in academia, industry, clinical and regulatory affairs.
The department has centralized animal house approved by CPCSEA for conducting experiments on Mice, Rats, Guinea Pigs and Rabbits.
