Research & Publications

Research and innovation along with contributing to the community is a necessity. It enables us to come up with new ideas which help us get rid of the stereotypic learning methods.

Research is defined as the "systematic and sustained effort to enhance the acquisition of knowledge." The main goal of Institute of Health Sciences is to promote research within the community. Teaching and learning are the main pillars of our institution, and it is through these that we help students to cultivate a lifelong passion for learning.

Research and innovation are two of the most important terms which exist nowadays in world. These terms are related with each other and these terms are known as the basis of scientific and medical advancements. The institute is doing lots of hard work to build a strong relation between these two main terms- research and innovation. So, let's have a look at some of the significant contribution made by institute in promoting these two terms.

Institute of Health Sciences has created Ideation Hub for pooling of ideas for innovative solutions for challenging disorders and disabilities. The staff and students of IHS are encouraged to come forward with their own concepts and projects for mentoring. Such ideas are put to test either with intramural funding and support or as personal level initiative.

Ms Subhasmita Sahu is the present Chairperson of the Ideation Hub. The Ideation Hub conducts annual event of Comnclave of Research, Innovation and Entrepreneurship. Best performers are provided with ISAM Innovation Award.

Institute of Health Sciences organizes “Authority Event” for celebrating the success of the achievement of the Indian authors, who have contributed to enrich the profession by writing content and publishing. They deserve the limelight as an Authority. Most of the professional training are being done using books authored by foreigners. Indian heritage, socio-cultural practice and Indian languages need sensitive handling to script professional books. Professionals of Indian origin can do justice when they write books for Indian audience. Their work deserves appreciative audience and acknowledgement on suitable platforms for its relevance.

The event Authority is planned to showcase the contribution of Indian authors in rehabilitation sciences. This program provides the pedestal to deliver the author’s message to future of the profession.

This year the authority event was held on 14th August 2022 at Vivekananda Kendra, Bhubaneswar. 19 authors have received Authority Award this year for publishing their books in Rehabilitation Sciences.

Audiology has grown over the recent decades from an assessment of hearing functionwithvoluntary participation of the patient to efficient electro physiological assessment ofAudio vestibular function. Range of technology solutions have made hearing aidsintelligent support systems for hearing health. The advances in diagnostics and rehabilitation has positioned Audiology as a reliable health care discipline. Audiologyhowever has expanded to deal with a lot of variety of challenges. For example, the space sciences for dealing with influence of gravity related issues. While space tourism is gaining special attention, Audiology is gearing up for handling health issues that might crop up with space travellers. Audiology discipline is braving itself for digital transform using Artificial intelligence, Machine learning, Virtual reality and Internet of Things for effective solutions for hearing problems. But new domains of challenges are constantly cropping up. Auditory Neuropathy, Vestibular Neuropathy, Auditory Integration disorders, Auditory Processing disorders and in recent times, Autoimmune Inner Ear Disorders will keep the Hearing Scientists on their toes for delivering effective remedies to the disorders. While the profession has a long way to go, the publications like ISAM Journal will play its role of a suitable platform to showcase the research and development. It has been decide to publish the ISAM Journal twice a year. The ISAM Journal will play its role as the Indian Journal of Audiology and promote Indian professionals.

Rehabilitation being an important aspect of health care is fast evolving where new diagnostic approaches and evidence based management strategies are coming up in rapid pace.

The Institute Of Health Sciences ( Autonomous ) , in its pursuit for excellence in rendering rehabilitation services to patients and providing the highest standard of education has taken a giant leap renaming the journal as Indian Journal Of Physical Rehabilitation which was earlier known as PHYZMED. We have done this to include the other fields of rehabilitation like occupational therapy and prosthetics and orthotics besides physiotherapy. In this journal short communication , research articles , scientific papers and individual case studies have been highlighted.

This will serve to enhance the profession and serve as a medium to exchange professional ideas and augment professional skills.
