The Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology in the School of Medicine at the University of Louisville focuses upon the interaction of drugs and other chemicals with biological systems ranging from individual molecules, to cells, to tissues, to organ systems or individuals. The two disciplines are a continuum incorporating the therapeutic to toxic effect of every drug and chemical. Our departmental programs incorporate pharmacology and/or toxicology, and graduates are well trained to accept employment in either or both disciplines. Our research and curriculum incorporate molecular biology, genetics, neuroscience, biochemistry, physiology and other biomedical sciences, providing maximum flexibility for our graduates.
