Course Description |
THE MAIN OBJECTIE OF THIS COURSE IS TO TEACH GRADUATE STUDENTS THE MOLECULAR MECHANISMS OF DRUG ACTIONS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS IN PHARMACOLOGICAL RESEARCH TO ENABLE THE STUDENTS TO STUDY EFFECTS OF DRUGS CURRENTLY USED AND NEWLY DISCOVERED BOTH IN VITRO AND IN VIVO.
PHARMACODYNAMICS DEALS WITH THE PRINCIPLES OF DRUG EFFECTS IN THE CELL AND IN THE BODY WITH AN EMPHASIS AT THE MOLECULAR LEVEL. THE COURSE ALSO COVERS FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS OF PHARMACOGENETICS AND PHARMACOKINETICS, INCLUDING DRUG EFFECTS ON NERVOUS SYSTEM, CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM, ENDOCRINE SYSTEM, RESPIRATORY SYSTEM AND GASTROINTESTINAL SYSTEM, IMMUNE SYSTEM AS WELL AS CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC AGENTS, ANTI-COAGULANTS AND ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS. THE UP-TO-DATE KNOWLEDGE AND DEVELOPMENT IN PHARMACOLOGY WILL BE INCLUDED FROM TIME TO TIME TO BROADEN THE STUDENTS’ VIEW ABOUT SCIENCE.
THE SCORES OF STUDENTS ARE BASED ON THE MID-TERM AND FINAL EXAMINATIONS.
