Division of Clinical Pharmacology
Director, Douglas E. Rollins, Ph.D., M.D.
Professor. D. Rollins.
Pharmacology deals with the properties and effects of drugs and how they interact with living systems. Toxicology is concerned with toxicities of drugs and other chemicals and the demonstration of the safety and hazards of such substances.
The department offers instruction in pharmacology and toxicology. Unusually fine instrumentation and ongoing research programs provide a stimulating learning environment for both undergraduate and graduate students. Teaching and research capabilities of the department are enhanced by the facilities of the Center for Human Toxicology and the Anticonvulsant Drug Development Program. No undergraduate degree is offered by the department.
