The Department of Biochemistry at MGM Medical College, Panvel, serves as a foundational pillar in pre-clinical medical education. It plays a vital role in shaping the scientific understanding of MBBS students by bridging basic sciences with clinical practice. The department emphasizes both theoretical knowledge and practical application to enhance diagnostic reasoning and lifelong learning. With a committed team of teaching and technical staff, it fosters a strong academic environment grounded in scientific inquiry. Facilities include a well-ventilated undergraduate practical laboratory for 50 students, equipped with designated reagent prep areas, CCTV surveillance, and proper storage. Interactive learning is supported through a demonstration room with projector and a seminar room for group discussions. A departmental library stocked with key reference texts is accessible to students and faculty alike. The infrastructure spans 140 sq. meters of lab space, featuring modern instruments such as a dry chemistry analyzer, ABG analyzer, and electrolyte analyzer located in the Central Clinical Laboratory (CCL). Equipment like incubators, centrifuges, and hot air ovens support routine biochemistry diagnostics. Strict adherence to biomedical waste protocols and Internal Quality Control (IQC) ensures safe and standardized laboratory practices. As a critical link between molecular biology and clinical diagnostics, the department enables students to interpret laboratory results and understand disease mechanisms. Its integration with hospital-based services further reinforces clinical relevance. The department encourages research-oriented thinking and prepares students for further learning in pathology, pharmacology, and internal medicine. By instilling scientific rigor and ethical responsibility, it plays a crucial role in developing competent and compassionate healthcare professionals.
