This course provides an integrated sequence of interactive teaching sessions designed to educate students in the fundamental principles of pharmacology with an emphasis on modern translational approaches for drug discovery. Basic principles of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and pharmacogenomics, the properties of drug targets, and the chemistry of natural products, small molecules and proteins will be emphasized. Translational topics will include an in-depth considerations of systems-level effects of target-drug interaction, macromolecular modeling for drug design, and nanotechnolog methods for drug delivery. 2 cr, Fall sem.
