Department of Pharmacology, Physiology & Neuroscience

Pharmacology, Physiology and Neuroscience are scientific fields directed toward understanding the molecular, cellular and organ systems that are essential to life itself as well as their alteration by the actions of exogenous agents. Our understanding of these systems is the essential basis for rational clinical diagnosis, treatment of disease and our knowledge of how drugs and toxic agents exert their effects in humans.
