Motivation

The basic health care facilities in our country are not adequately accessible to the remote areas and the cost of state-of-the-art healthcare system is far beyond the reach of majority of our population
Catalyze the process of collaboration and exchange between the faculty and healthcare professionals, thereby identifying more areas of innovative research and the development of demand based low cost diagnostic tools in addition to what is proposed
The interdisciplinary nature of healthcare needs can create a platform of unified research activity amongst scientists and technologists leading to new research contributions
Providing opportunity for students of the existing M.Sc. course in Biomedical Instrumentation and a proposed M. Tech. course in Biomedical Instrumentation, thereby stimulating them to take up research in this area
