Essentials of Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacology |
|
| Course Code: EMCP |
|
 |
This course is for chemical scientists who have little or no formal training in physiology, pharmacology, or medicinal chemistry. It reviews key concepts and principles of those sciences, including:
- Modern concepts of drug action, drug-receptor interactions, and pharmacophore analysis
- Molecular basis for the mechanism of action of drugs
- Concepts in PK and PD, drug efficacy and potency, physiological effects, and structure/function relationships
- Modern drug design approaches, including structure-based and ligand-based drug design
- ADME/tox
