This is a graduate level toxicology course that introduces the key concepts and mechanisms of toxicology. The course is not comprehensive, but focuses primarily on molecular and modern quantitative toxicology studies and the interface between toxicology and pharmacology, as well as a survey of the major areas of modern toxicology focus. The recommended text for the course is Cassarett and Doull's Toxicology, 6th Edition. Copies of the entire textbook, and also copies of chapters relevant to each lecture, will be available on reserve in the library in addition to other reading materials specific to each topic as assigned by the lecturer.
