Research Methodology and Medical Statistics (As per New NCISM BAMS Syllabus 2025)

About The Book Reviews

The textbook, 'Research Methodology and Medical Statistics' for BAMS Final Year Students, is designed as a concise, practice-oriented guide that bridges classical Ayurvedic wisdom with the modern research ecosystem. It simplifies essential topics such as research design, data collection tools, sampling strategies, biostatistical tests, ethics, ICMR guidelines, plagiarism detection - all in alignment with current Research standards. Special attention has been given to (i) contextualizing research within the Ayurvedic paradigm, (ii) mapping learning outcomes with NCISM graduate competencies, (iii) providing real-life research examples, flowcharts, summary boxes, and MCWs for better retention and (iv) simplifying statistical concepts with visual aids and practical illustrations.

This book is the outcome of years of experience as a clinician, teacher, researcher, and peer reviewer in the field of Ayurveda. I hope this work serves as a foundational step in shaping evidence-conscious Ayurvedic practitioners who can contribute to the global discourse on integrative medicine with scientific rigor.
