Ayurvedic medicine has gained wide recognition for its contribution to general medicine (Charaka ‘s treatise on Diabetes etc) and surgery (Plastic Surgery and cataract instrumentation of Sushruta). However, less is known to the modern world about its contribution to newborn care, perinatal care, and pediatric care. Although it is known that Newborn and Pediatric care was well described in different texts of Ayurveda, the first exclusive text book of Kaumarabhritya viz. Kashyapa Samhita dated 6thCentury BC.

The Department of Kaumarabhritya seeks to improve the health of children across India and beyond through excellence in the care of children and families.

The Department also seeks to excel in academics, research and in the education of clinicians and scientists.
