Pharmacology Primer for Chemists |
|
| Course Code: PWEB |
|
 |
| This course is designed to help chemists understand basic pharmacological principles and the extension of those principles into therapeutic medicine. By the end, students should be able to use pharmacology to assess structure-activity data on molecules in biological systems and to see relationships between chemical structure and drug affinity and efficacy. In particular, emphasis is given to the techniques available to quantify biological activity in system-independent ways such that estimates of affinity and efficacy transcend tissue type. Structure-activity analyses for primary (desired) activity and secondary (undesired toxic) activity are discussed in terms of assays and methods. |

System Requirements
You need a high-speed connection to the Internet and an up-to-date version of your web browser. The audio portion of the live session will be provided via VOIP and US toll conference call. VOIP is dependent on the quality and speed of your internet connection so a high-speed connection is strongly recommended. Those choosing to use VOIP should also have a headset or microphone in order to interact with the instructor.
