Biography, qualifications, career timeline, teaching and administrative experience, research interests, and the academic vision behind Homoeo-bio-engineering.
Dr. Mahendra Hariram Gaushal is a homoeopathic physician and academic. His published biodata records long experience in teaching at undergraduate and postgraduate level, with research and academic administration alongside.
His interest in measurement science is reflected in his training. He completed two certificate courses in Biomedical Instrumentation at the SGGS Institute of Engineering and Technology, Nanded, in 1997 and 1998. This interest in measurement science has shaped his later research and teaching.
He is listed as Director / Principal of Sonajirao Kshirsagar Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital, Beed, Maharashtra, in the institution's teaching-staff listing updated on 13 October 2026. Earlier appointments are summarised in the timeline below.
Designations and dates are taken from official institutional sources and from the author's published biodata. They will be updated as they are confirmed.

Historical positions are marked as historical. Dates are as stated in the published biodata and institutional listings. Where sources differ, the range is shown as given and marked for confirmation.
Lecturer and assistant professor roles from 1990 at several homoeopathic medical colleges in Maharashtra, followed by professorial and departmental roles. The biodata records teaching in undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.
Listed in the biodata as Professor and Head, Department of Psychiatry (from 1 July 2011), and Professor and Coordinator, Department of Biomedical Engineering (from 14 August 2014). Current status to be confirmed.
Principal and Hospital Superintendent roles at Shirpur (1998–2010) and Miraj (2010–2011), and Director / Principal at Beed from 29 August 2019.
Secretary for a Basic Research Methodology Workshop for teachers of the Maharashtra University of Health Sciences (MUHS), held at SKHMC Beed in November 2013 (biodata).
Earlier board and council roles on an older profile page, including Chairman, Board of Studies (Homoeopathy), North Maharashtra University, Jalgaon, are listed for confirmation.
Professor and Coordinator of the Department of Biomedical Engineering, an interdisciplinary departmental venture at SKHMC Beed, from 14 August 2014 (biodata). His measurement training includes two Certificate Courses in Biomedical Instrumentation at SGGS Nanded (1997 and 1998).
The research interests are summarised below. The research page separates published work, protocols, projects and open questions.
Homoeo-bio-engineering is proposed as an interdisciplinary academic framework. It is not an officially recognised discipline. It asks how engineering tools and measurement methods can be used to study homoeopathic interventions with clear methods and cautious interpretation.
Collaboration with engineers, statisticians, clinicians and methodologists is central to this approach. Opportunities are listed on the events and collaboration page.
That measurement, transparent method and interdisciplinary research become ordinary parts of how homoeopathic interventions are studied, so that questions are asked clearly, answered with appropriate evidence and reported honestly.
The institution's teaching-staff listing, updated on 13 October 2026, shows him as Director / Principal from 29 August 2019.

No. It is a proposed interdisciplinary academic framework.
It is intended for discussion, teaching and research design. It does not carry official accreditation. See the research disclaimer.
No. It is an independent personal academic initiative of Dr. Mahendra Hariram Gaushal.
It is not an official website of any college, university or government body, unless a formal endorsement is separately documented.
No. A measured change, on its own, does not establish efficacy.
Conclusions require a pre-specified protocol, an appropriate comparison group, blinding where feasible, control of confounders and appropriate statistics. See research methodology and limitations.
