From the Desk of the Vice Chancellor

Professor S.Gowri, B.E (TCE,MKU)., M.Tech (IITM)., Ph.D(IITM).

Vice-chancellor.

As the Vice Chancellor of this premier university, I am extremely pleased to share this space to converse with all of you. The University of Madras is a post- sesquicentennial institution which has forged a glorious path for itself and has been the site for significant scientific discoveries as well as the beacon for national and regional societal transformation. It has successfully managed to hold aloft its tradition even while keeping up with the emerging trends. One reason for this is the way in which the university has kept alive its interactions with all the stakeholders.

The COVID 19 pandemic has introduced a ‘new normal’ and its impact is felt in the workings of the university as well. The students have been attending the lectures online. While online learning has the advantage of being anytime and anywhere, it has taken away the peer group interaction and peer learning which are integral aspects of the university experience. We look forward to welcoming you to the campus very soon. Meanwhile, our faculty and administration will continue to bring the best to the virtual classrooms. As students, you need to view the restrictions posed by the pandemic as a temporary deterrent. Your focus should be to gain the competencies to conduct application oriented research in order to evolve as useful citizens of our society.

Our university boasts of faculty with a high degree of knowledge and commitment to offer the best in teaching and research. Given the context of the pandemic, we need to redefine our teaching-learning processes to offer the best pedagogic experience to our students. Similarly, the post-pandemic era demands that we hone the employment potential and entrepreneurial capacity of our learners. This necessitates that we focus on sponsored research in cutting edge areas.

Our administrative staff have been the backbone of the university. While we move towards a transparent and complete e-governance model, we need more support from you. When the teaching-learning process at our university – from admission to certification -- is moving into the digital era, your skills and competencies need to keep pace.

At our university, we are gearing up for the final round of NAAC re-accreditation. This has offered us an opportunity to assess our Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges. Further, it has made us more determined to reiterate our quality benchmarks in teaching, research and extension activities. We are aware of this responsibility and fully prepared for it because, our university has always encouraged individual thinking within the established frameworks. This is echoed in the words of Tim Burners Lee, who initiated the World Wide Web: “We are forming cells within a global brain and we are excited that we might start to think collectively. What becomes of us still hangs crucially on how we think individually.” Let us unite to make the educational experience at the University of Madras a synergy of the best minds and best thoughts.

PSYCHO ONCOLOGY

The department  provides standard and quality psycho-social care to the cancer patients and integrates psycho-social services as part of the cancer care at the Institute.

Introduction

Two & half decades ago, seven likeminded philanthropists started a psychosocial service to cancer patients at the Cancer Institute through the support group ‘SANCTUARY’. Later, in 2001, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare of the Government of India supported the Cancer Institute (WIA) in establishing the Tobacco Cessation Center (TCC), which offers psychological therapies for tobacco de-addiction by trained psychologists. Likewise, in 2002, with the WHO’s initiative, a palliative care clinic was created at the Cancer Institute (WIA) where a psychologist started offering therapy to ease the suffering and enhance the quality of life (QOL) of patients at an advanced stage of the disease along with the medical team. In recent years, more scientific research in the field of psycho-oncology has been initiated at the Cancer Institute along with other clinical departments. Moreover, educational and training activities were also started.

Studies on the coping preferences of head & neck cancer patients and the standardization of a QOL Questionnaire and Psychological intervention to improve Quality of Life of Head & Neck cancer patients have been carried out. In 2003 the assessment of the neuro-cognitive sequelae of children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia was started. Currently the department offers Ph.D., & M. Phil. courses in Psycho-oncology. The department provides psycho-social support to the cancer patients at the institute and organizes support group meetings through which group counseling is offered for different sets of patients. The department also undertakes many initiatives for the primary prevention of cancer among the youth and public. Currently, a full-fledged Psycho-oncology department functions at the institute with the  following objectives:

• To provide standard and quality psycho-social care to the cancer patients and integrate psycho-social services as part of the cancer care at the Institute.
• To equip psychology professionals to carry out comprehensive psychological evaluations of cancer patients and apply a range of psychological intervention for them.
• To enhance the quality of life of the patients through psycho-social interventions.
• To create a large pool of professional psycho-oncologists to meet the psycho-social needs of cancer patients at various centres in the country.
• To sensitize the oncology professionals to the psycho-social needs of the cancer patients and assist them to cater to these needs.
• To close the wide gap between current scientific knowledge and actual clinical care of patients.
• To build the scientific knowledge in the field of psycho-oncology based on the Indian population by undertaking vigorous researches.
