The workshop, titled "Techniques in Physiological Sciences" (TIPS), held from April 2 to 4, provided medical professionals with a unique opportunity to acquire practical skills in cutting-edge physiological techniques. Participants delved into various physiological domains, ranging from cardiovascular and respiratory physiology to neurophysiology and behavioral techniques.
The workshop's comprehensive curriculum aimed to equip medical professionals with the necessary tools and knowledge to navigate the complexities of human physiology effectively.
“Through 16 dynamic workshops, we’re not just teaching techniques; we’re revolutionising how we understand and intervene in human physiology. From non-invasive brain mapping to objective assessments of lifestyle modifications, our approach encompasses a holistic view of health,” said Dr Kanwalpreet Kochhar, the Prof & Head In-Charge of Cognitive Neurophysiology & Nutrition Lab at the AIIMS, New Delhi.
