Outline and Purpose of the Course (Aim) This course aims to teach students how to approach clinical pharmacology and therapeutics research and draft research plans, as well as experimental techniques, data analysis, and problem-solving skills through laboratory experiments.
(Summary) In this course, students will conduct basic or clinical research in clinical pharmacology and therapeutics, including the mechanisms and treatments for adverse effects of pharmaceutical drugs, the pathophysiology and therapeutic drugs for various diseases, and the appropriate use of pharmaceutical drugs.
Course Goals To learn basic and clinical research approaches in clinical pharmacology and therapeutics, learn how to draft research plans, and learn experiment techniques, data analysis, and problem-solving skills.
Schedule and Contents 1-15: The following experiments will be conducted:
・Research on the mechanisms and treatments for adverse effects of pharmaceutical drugs
・Research on the correlation between blood concentration and pharmaceutical drug efficacy and side effects, and pharmacokinetic changes during the pathophysiology
・Research on pharmacokinetic analysis for the purposes of appropriate use of pharmaceutical drugs
・Clinical and basic Research to clarify the pathophysiology of drug-induced peripheral neuropathy and the development of therapeutic drugs
・Research on the pathophysiology of pain and analgesics
Evaluation Methods and Policy Students will be comprehensively evaluated based on their approach and attitude to day-to-day research.
