Biochemistry
Department of Biochemistry
The human body houses various chemical processes, at the cellular and molecular levels. They are required for the effective body functioning, and any imbalance in them can cause moderate to serious health issues. The Bio-chemistry department at Santhiram provides a thorough understanding about these aspects to the students.
The study of biochemical processes reveals the reasons behind the patterns of different body functions. The inter cellular structures, components and their compositions are studied, and the effects due to any changes in them are also interpreted. Various health issues are diagnosed and treated by using this knowledge. For example, in Cancer, the role of carcinogens (particles which are responsible for the growth of cancerous tissue) and the changes in the human cellular composition are important to assess the severity of the health condition precisely, and provide effective treatment for it.
The role of Bio-chemistry is also important in interpreting other medical sciences, like Genetics, Forensics, Medicine, etc. The knowledge about human cells is crucial in these fields as well. Hence we take the assistance of different teaching means to make our students thorough in the subject. Advanced infrastructure, sophisticated amenities and incredible teaching expertise are available for them, to gain proficiency in this field of medical sciences.
