Abstract
This course provides an introduction to Pharmacology which is the study of chemicals that produce change in function of biological systems and the mechanisms by which these chemicals act. We will focus on the main classes of drugs and how they affect their target systems. We will also survey some of the more popular contemporary drugs. The course is designed to provide students who plan to pursue medical, health professional, or biomedical research careers a foundation for their professional or graduate coursework and research. However, it is appropriate for any student who has an interest in the subject matter.
