Department of Pharmacology
Overview
Pharmacology serves as a bridge between basic science and clinical medicine. Pharmacology studies pharmacodynamics (how drugs directly or indirectly act on the body and influence body functions) and pharmacokinetics (how body processes drugs – drug metabolism).
Research direction
pharmacodynamics investigates effects and mechanisms of drugs, clinical applications of drugs, etc.; pharmacokinetics investigates drug clearance and elimination from the body and drug metabolism in the body.
