Molecular Neuropharmacology (C7128)

15 credits, Level 6

Spring teaching

A molecular understanding of human health and disease and the mode of action of drugs is crucial for the development of new drugs with improved potency and reduced side effects. It also underpins the development of personalised medicine, which is about giving the right treatment to the right people at the right time and is a move away from ‘one size fits all’ approach to the treatment of patients with a particular condition.

On this module, you'll cover all the aspects of the drug discovery process and discuss the challenges of improving drug treatment of example diseases with an unmet medical need.
