  Introduction

The Department of Physiology and Biochemistry is one of the oldest Departments of the University of Veterinary & Animal Sciences, Lahore. Being two very fundamental subjects of the Faculty of Biosciences it serves as basis of academic architect. The Department has produced many renowned veterinarians. After the up-gradation of this Institute from College to University, the Department has assumed a wider role. Today, the Department offers biochemistry to six different undergraduate degree programs as well as postgraduate degrees in Physiology and Biochemistry independently. The Department also enjoys a learned faculty with three PhD, six MPhil, one MSc (Hons.) and two DVM.
