Faculty members taught Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pharmacology to second- and third-year medical students. Later, the department became independent, focusing on Physiology. Physiology is the foundation of medical sciences. The department’s mission emphasizes acquiring theoretical knowledge and practical skills in normal body functions, as well as understanding molecular, biochemical, and cellular mechanisms maintaining homeostasis. The department started postgraduate programs in 1970 (Master’s) and 1992 (Ph.D.), providing advanced education in Physiology. The department teaches physiology courses to Master’s and Ph.D. students in the department and other college departments. It also teaches physiology courses to pharmacy and dentistry students at the University of Mosul and medical students at Nineveh University. The department has graduated 43 Master’s and 11 Ph.D. students. The department is administratively affiliated with the Medical Physics Unit, which teaches medical physics to first-year medical students. The department organizes continuous education courses, annual seminars, and participates in scientific conferences inside and outside Iraq. Faculty members conduct scientific research to advance the scientific level and provide medical services to the community, including: – Cardiovascular and respiratory physiology – Lung function – Reproductive physiology – Neurophysiology Faculty Members of the Medical Physiology department Name: A ssistant Professor Dr. Alyaa Farouk AL-Omari ( Head of the Department) Certificate: Ph.D. Specialty: Medical Physiology Email: [email protected] CV: https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/alyaa.alomari/en Name: Assistant Lecturer Yahya Salim Ahmed ( Department Coordinator ) Certificate : Master’s Degree Specialty: Medical Electronics Technologies Email: [email protected] CV : https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/yahya_ahmed/en Name: Assistant Professor Dr. Afra a Moha m med Al-Am een Certificate: Ph.D. Specialty: Medical Physiology Email: [email protected] CV: https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/afraa.ameen/en _______________________________________ Name: Assistant Professor Dr. Z ay d K ay s Al- Atraqji ( Head of the Department) Certificate: Ph.D. Specialty: Internal Medicine Email: [email protected] CV: https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/zaydkays/en ________________________________________ Name: Lecturer Dr. Janan Abdul Razak Abdullah Certificate: Ph.D. Specialty: Medical Physiology Email: [email protected] CV : https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/janan.alnoman/en ________________________________________ Name: Lecturer Dr. Rajaa Ahmad Yonis Alhasan Certificate: Ph.D. Specialty: Medical Physiology Email: [email protected] CV : https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/rajaa.alhasan/en ________________________________________ Name: Lecturer Bushra Khairaldee n Abdulkader (Ph.D. student) Certificate : Master’s Degree Specialty: Medical Physiology Email: [email protected] CV : https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/bushra.khair/en _________________________ Name: Lecturer Dr. Arwa Faiq Jameel AL- shaki Certificate: Ph.D. Specialty: Physiology Email: [email protected] CV: https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/arwa.jameel/en ________________________________________ Name: Assistant Lecturer Dr. Hind Nazar Kas i m Certificate: Master’s Degree Specialty: Medical Physiology Email: [email protected] CV : https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/hindnazar/en ________________________________________ Name: Assistant Lecturer Raghda Tareq Abdulateef Certificate: Master’s Degree Specialty: Medical Physiology Email: [email protected] CV: https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/raghda.tariq/en ________________________________________ Name: Assistant Lecturer Huda Dham Bader Certificate: Master’s Degree Specialty: Biomedical Engineering Email: [email protected] CV: https://cv.uomosul.edu.iq/huda.badr/en Academic Program for Master’s and Ph.D. Studies in Medical Physiology : – Medical Physiology – Description of the Academic Program for Postgraduate Studies – Master’s in Medical Physiology For contact with the Head of the Physiology Department, Assistant Professor Dr. Z ay d K ay s Al- Atraqji : [email protected] About the University University Administration University Overview University Strategy Organizational Structure University Statistics Mosul City Campus Campus Grounds Libraries Sports Facilities Guest House IELTS Test Center Primary Healthcare Center Other Websites Computer Center Continuing Education Center Scholarships and Cultural Relations External Links Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research Ur Portal University Address Al Majmoaa Street Postal Code : 41002 Mosul – Iraq Contact Us All Rights Reserved for University of Mosul © 2026 Page load link Search for: Home About Dean Speech Our College in Brief College’s mission,values and learning outcomes College Board College’s Structure Previous Deans Departments Department of Anatomy Department of Family and Community Medicine Department of Medical Physiology Department of Medicine Department of Surgery Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Pathology Department of Microbiology Department of Biochemistry Department of Pharmacology Department of Pediatrics Contact Us University of Mosul Search for: Go to Top"
