Course: UPCM+ Pharmacology, Topic: Drug Discovery and Development

Welcome to Pharmacology!


UPCM⁺Pharmacology covers Basic Principles of Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics. This is composed of seven (7) modules and around thirty (30) hours of coursework designed to introduce and facilitate understanding of important concepts in Pharmacology relevant to students of both medical and paramedical fields. The principles of how drug works and is handled by the body are presented using common drugs that students can also familiarize with.

A post-quiz which can be taken twice will follow each module, and a proctored summative evaluation will be set (TBA) after the specified course period. A certificate of accomplishment will be given after completion of all modules and passing the summative evaluation.
