Frontiers in pharmacology

PHCL 7600 The course is intended to introduce students to cutting-edge pharmacology research and to the range of research opportunities available within the Pharmacology Training Program. A series of presentations will focus on cellular signaling mechanisms, mechanisms of drug actions, pathways relevant to cancer, neuroscience, and cardiac biology, as well as other areas. The class format is flexible and discussion oriented. There are no exams or tests. Each class will consist of a ~40 min presentation, followed by a student-led discussion. The discussion may include questions about the research field, specific research presented, or even general questions of relevance to pharmacology students.
