Dr.Shazia Shakoor after completing MBBS from Dow Medical Collage in 1997

I was promoted to the position of Associate Professor in 2013 and after completion of my PhD; I was promoted to the designation of Professor in 2015 and later awarded the designation of Senior Professor in 2017 at BUHSC followed by promotion to the position of Head of Department of Physiology in 2022.

What type of talks have you presented in the past?
Objective: To assess the Perceptions and Challenges of medical students towards E-Learning in medical education. Method: It was a descriptive cross-sectional survey that was conducted among the medical students of Bahria University Health Sciences from Jun 2022 – Sep 2022
after securing ethical approval. Google forms were used to get responses from the participants and the data was stored and analyzed using SPSS version 23. Results: Our study showed that during lockdown
academic performance suffered when learning was done online. Univariate and multivariate study shows a connection between screen time and feeling restless
exercising less
and having lower academic achievement
although online instruction fosters a sense of connection with others. Conclusion: More faculty and students’ developmental programs should be introduced to make using gadgets and online devices and applications easier. Universities and educational institutions should develop roadmaps to deal with similar situations in future.
