World Anatomy Day honours the work of Andreas Vesalius and marks the anniversary of his death on 15th October 1564.
The Department of Anatomy, KFMSR, headed by Professor Dr. Nirmala Devi M, organised this significant annual event by conducting competitions such as Body painting, Rangoli and Poster presentation for the first year MBBS students Batch (2021-2022) on 14th October 2022.
