About the department

The Department of Anatomy is one of the first department to be established along at the inception of the institute in the year 2012. It is involved in the development of curriculum of anatomy for MBBS students.

Education

At present the Department is involved in teaching postgraduate (MD); undergraduate (MBBS), B.Sc. (Nursing) and M.Sc. (Nursing); B.Sc. (Hons) Paramedical Courses. For Gross Anatomy teaching, the department has embalming facility, cadaver storage tanks and mortuary cooler for cold storage of cadavers. There is Gross anatomy museum with sufficient number of specimens of human body parts/models/charts, 2 demonstration rooms and 1 seminar room. For microscopic anatomy there is UG histology laboratory. Both formative and summative assessments are held periodically to evaluate the students. Clinically oriented learning is emphasised by organising horizontal and vertical integration lectures and seminars in association with other Departments. The acquisition of skills are tested periodically by conducting objective structured practical examination (OSPE) during the medical teaching.

Research labs

For Postgraduate research we have an up to date histology lab with immunohistochemistry set up. We have set up a state-of-the-art Cytogenetic Laboratory with Karyotyping and FISH (Fluorescence in situ hybridization) facilities to provide diagnostic and genetic counselling services to the patients of AIIMS, Bhubaneswar. The Department has already installed CO2 incubator, Biosafety cabinet for the cytogenetic laboratory.

Patient care:

The faculty in the department are part of perinatology clinic and we regularly cater to the patients who come for diagnostic and genetic counselling services in the hospital. The department is constantly striving to better itself in various fronts.

Message from Head of the Department:

Welcome to the Department of Anatomy at AIIMS Bhubaneswar. We started our journey in the year of Aug/Sept 2012. Since then, we have grown our expertise and competence in the various arenas of curriculum and research in Anatomy. We have a robust undergraduate program, including MBBS, B.Sc., M.Sc., Nursing and Paramedical courses as well. At the postgraduate level, we offer MD Anatomy and PhD degree. The primary focus of our curriculum is to impart holistic foundation in Anatomy. Our department maintains active research groups for carrying out collaborative and interdisciplinary research. We have state of the art research facilities in Cytogenetics to support our academic programs and research. Our department has a distinguished record in both teaching and research. Faculty members have excellent academic credentials and are highly regarded. Several faculty members serve on the editorial boards of national and international journals, review technical articles for journals on a regular basis. We also cater to the patients with genetic disorders through genetic counselling. Best wishes, Dr. Manisha R. Gaikwad Head of the Department , Department of Anatomy, AIIMS Bhubaneswar.

Major achievements:

Voluntary whole body donation program for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and research since 2012-13
Embalming and cold storage facility for cadavers.
State-of-the-art Cytogenetic Laboratory with Karyotyping and FISH (Fluorescence in situ hybridization) facilities (2021)
