This laboratory has all the basic equipments needed to perform experiments related to medical physics applications. Medical Physics is the application of Physics concepts, theories and principles to medicine or health care.Some of the key areas of research include:

Corrosion and wear are the major factors that affects the service period of an implant when exposed to the aggressive environment as in human body. Development of new materials and coatings to alleviate wear and corrosion are the major focus of biomaterials research to enhance the longevity of mankind. The major focus of this facility is to evaluate and understand the behaviour of widely used implant materials such as titanium and magnesium in simulated body conditions. The corrosion of coated and uncoated substrates are evaluated using ACM Gill potentiostat under controlled environment.
