Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex

Brief Introduction :

 Dr. Swaran Singh Randhawa is a devoted and industrious clinician,teacher as well as a researcher. He has an excellent scientific career,evidenced by his quality research and clinical papers. He has published more than 70 research papers in national and international journals. He has been honored with University Best Teacher Award for the year 2017-18.  He did a pioneer work on ‘Bovine lameness’. For the first time in India, He evaluated sole thickness using ultrasonography in crossbred dairy cattle, which can be used as a selection criterion for breeding programs. He developed Hindi version of “Claw Health Atlas” for International Committee for Animal Recording (ICAR). He also standardized ‘Fast localized abdominal ultrasonography of horses’ (FLASH) for diagnosis in equine colic patients. Recently, he standardized transtracheal wash (TTW) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) techniques for diagnosis in respiratory problems in equines. He also established endoscopy for diagnosis of upper respiratory tract (URT) diseases of equines at the university hospital. His research has been acclaimed nationally and internationally (Finland and New Zealand) with more than 70 presentations in conferences. Presently, He is part of DBT Canine Research Centre and working on the project ‘Elucidating the etiology of chronic gastro-enteropathies in dogs’. He guided 10 postgraduate students. He is currently supervising 2 M.V.Sc and 2 Ph.D student. Presently, he is Editor of Indian Journal of Veterinary Medicine and member of the National Academy of Veterinary Sciences (India).
