The Department of Physiology has started its journey from 2016-17 academic session under affiliation of the Vidyasagar University having Physiology as a General subject taught for B.Sc. (General) Bio Science course. Currently, the department is equipped with two faculties, plenty of books, and two laboratories with different sophisticated instruments required for the curriculum.
Physiology is the science of life. It is the branch of biology that aims to understand the mechanisms of living things, from the basis of cell function at the ionic and molecular level to the integrated behaviour of the whole body and the influence of the external environment. Research in physiology helps us to understand how the body works in health and how it responds and adapts to the challenges of everyday life; it also helps us to determine what goes wrong in disease, facilitating the development of new treatments and guidelines for maintaining human and animal health. The emphasis on integrating molecular, cellular, systems and whole body function is what distinguishes physiology from the other life sciences.
