ACHIEVEMENTS

The Anatomy Department at GMERS Medical College, Sola, is continually striving to reach new milestones in education, research, andinnovation. We adhere to a Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME)curriculum, enriching students with in-depth knowledge of anatomy. Here aresome achievements of our recent activities:

 

Rangoli Competition: We organized a Rangoli Competition focusing on various anatomical aspects. Students participated enthusiastically,showcasing their understanding of anatomy in vibrant displays of artistry.

 

Workshop Collaboration with Marengo CIMS Hospital: Ourdepartment collaborated with Marengo CIMS Hospital to conduct a workshop onspine surgery using cadavers. This collaboration provided invaluable hands-on experience, enhancing the knowledge and confidence of aspiring spine surgeons.

 

Body Donation Program: We are deeply committed to the Body Donation Program. Last year, we received 16 body donations and 14 pledge forms for future donations. This initiative plays a crucial role in advancing medical education and research.

 

Participation in Research Projects: Our students actively engage in research endeavors. They participated in projects funded by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and student innovative projects,receiving grants to support their endeavors. These experiences foster critical thinking and scientific inquiry among our students.

 

Symposium Participation: Our students take part in symposiums, where they not only share their research findings but also improve their presentation and leadership skills. These events provide a platform for students to learn effective communication and develop into future leaders in the field of medicine.

 

Ongoing Research Projects: The department is actively involved in various research projects, addressing contemporary issues in anatomy and education related fields. These projects contribute to the advancement of medical knowledge and practice.

 

Through these initiatives, we are not only imparting theoretical knowledge but also nurturing practical skills and fostering aspirit of inquiry among our students. Our aim is to produce well-rounded medical professionals equipped to meet the challenges of the healthcare landscape.
