HOD Message

“To me leader is someone who breeds more leaders”
The Department of Human Anatomy of Sree Balaji Dental College & Hospital, Bharath Institute of Higher Education & Research offer a well made anatomy education for undergraduate and postgraduate students pursuing courses in dentistry. We are a collegial community of researchers and educators dedicated to providing a rich educational environment for undergraduate & postgraduate students and maintain our research at the highest levels of excellence.
The students undertake a comprehensive and integrated course in Gross Anatomy, Neuroanatomy, Microscopic Anatomy and Developmental anatomy which firms a basis for a medical career. Our faculty are offering a platform where anatomy is taught with emphasis on clinical applications in each course. We have the facilities and infrastructure to deliver our courses at its best. Collaborations and linkages are key in our ability to advance research.
Each one of us is unique in our own sense and essence. I feel biggest achievement of education is when you learn your purpose and very basis of your existence is to be humble, noble and resourceful. The first step to success is not be afraid to TRY and not to be afraid of failing, because every failure teaches you the ways in which success cannot be achieved and knowing that is the biggest SUCCESS. “Ships are safer in harbour, but that is not what ships are built for”.

Faculty profile

Department History

Anatomy is often described as the “tough subject”, however, the stint with anatomy at the department had always spelt magic for all students. The Department of Anatomy was established in the year 1988. We are privileged to say that the Department of Anatomy was started three decades ago. We, being first and foremost department of Basic Sciences departments, work with the sole aim of laying a strong and thorough foundation in the fundamentals of medicine for the under graduates and post graduates.
Our department is placed in the second floor in the campus. It is an active pre-clinical department. It fulfils the required infrastructure and qualified teaching faculty as per DCI norms. In this department, the area of course deals with the human anatomy along with developmental anatomy (embryology), microscopic anatomy (histology), neuroanatomy and genetics caught by extremely dedicated team comprising of experienced senior faculties and energetic young junior staff members.
The department was initiated and headed by Prof. Dr. Helen Rodricks who was extremely passionate about anatomy in the year 1988 followed by Dr. Anantha Raman Iyer added colour and glory. From then on, the fame and name of the college has continued to grow far and wide. Successive professors, Dr. Thiruvengadam and Dr.Kamalesh Sundareswaran have contributed enormously to the development of department and also the college in the year 1999. Prof. Dr Kamalesh Sundareswaran MBBS, MS Anatomy, is our dynamic and senior most faculty who has more than three decades of experience in Tamilnadu Govt. service and 14 years of experience at Sree Balaji Dental College and Hospital. Subsequently Dr. G. Sumathy, Ph.D., took over the responsible as the head of the department in February 2016.
Our department is having highly experienced competent and motivated team of faculties, who are efficiently trained to make a student competent by using evidence-based techniques in medical education.

Value Added Course

“THEORY AND PRACTICE OF HISTOLOGICAL TECHNIQUES”
The course will provide the students with the basic knowledge of the theoretical and applied aspects of different techniques of tissue processing and staining. This subject covers the tissue collection, fixation, processing, embedding in paraffin-wax and section cutting, routing and special stains for different tissues for light microscopic study. It also covers immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, DNA isolation, bone decalcification, diagnostic cytology, tissue culture and microscope optics.
The aims is to make students to understand the and develop the skills in various processes in the tissue processing techniques. The outcome of this course will make the students proficient in understanding and managing the practical difficulties they come across and turn out to be well in histological techniques.

“BIOETHICS, HEALTH AND SAFETY PROTOCOLS IN THE FIELD OF ANATOMY”
Ever since the advent of medicine, life sciences have been running parallel to therapeutic sciences in forming the concepts of human life and the treatment of diseases which threaten it. The basic requisites for understanding man’s diseases come only after understanding man’s body. The dissection is inevitable part of medical education that provides details of internal structure and the functions and relationships of its components to medical learners.
Though there are many guidelines to emphasize protective measures in the dissection hall, many of students unaware of those measures. Therefore it is necessary to educate health and safety for the individuals in laboratory circumstance as medical/dental students and future care takers of health consequently they will become vigilant while they are in laboratory or handling hazardous materials. Moreover student will develop the fundamental ethics while they are working in laboratory.

Best Practice

Best Practice
Teaching and learning ago hand in hand that are extremely important in the process of education. Various teaching strategies are used to make students learn.
1. MCQ and work sheets
We encourage students to find answers on their own by giving MCQ and work sheets.

Multiple choice questions (or MCQs), are a type of interrogation, that provide a means of evaluating the knowledge of the students through an examination or test. Generally, an MCQ consists of a problem, known as a stem, which is then followed by a series of alternative answers. Students generally choose one of these answers in relation to the problem or question posed. Every year we assess the student’s knowledge level towards the subject through this method.
2. Mind mapping
Mind mapping is a spider diagram used to generate, visualize and organize. It is an effective tool for students and educators seeking to maximize the learning experience. For teachers and students, mind maps play an important role in education. Mind maps provide a much more effective approach toward the subjects. So we make the students to work on this method for accomplishing the information on the subject. 3. Project Based learning (PBL):
The project based learning provides an educational environment for the students and creates meaningful circumstances to apply both academic and success skills. The students where occupied by giving projects that is focused on undergraduate learning goals, and skills such as problem solving, collaboration, and self-management. Students make some decisions about the project, including how they work and what they create. They make their project work public by explaining, displaying and/or presenting it to people in the classroom and discussion with the staffs on the concerned topics. PBL provides opportunities to engage students. 4. VAK/ VARK Technique:
The VARK model of learning styles suggests that there are four main types of learners: visual, auditory, reading/writing, and kinesthetic. Students learn best when teaching methods and school activities match their learning styles.
