Objectives<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. To promote in silico research for reducing, refining and replacing animal experiments in education and research.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. To encourage the usage of non invasive techniques in pharmacology research.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. To encourage alternative animal models that will promote the concept of Three R\u2019s namely \u201cReduce, Refine and Reuse\u201d to reduce use of animals in education and research.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. To provide and develop continuous education programs and expansion of professional interaction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Fostering high quality research in clinical and preclinical pharmacology.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. To maintain medicinal plant garden with rich sources of plants with therapeutic value for phytopharmacology research.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. To be Centre for Excellence in Pharmacology and Toxicology Research for education, training, consultancy\/collaborative\/contract research approved by regulatory bodies.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
