Microbes are essential for maintaining life on Earth. They comprise more than 50% of the life-forms on our planet, yet only around 1% have been identified and studied. Pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses and parasites can attack our bodies and we rely on our immune system to protect us. Thus the relationship between microbes and immune cells is critical for our survival.

We also encourage students to actively take part in research.

Objective

The objectives of the course are to impart the knowledge of clinical pharmacology and practical therapeutics, including fundamental principles, mechanisms of action, rationales for drug selection, optimization of drug therapy, and assessment of therapeutic efficacy and outcome. This includes addressing the following aspects of clinical pharmacology and practical therapeutics:

• To review the principles of clinical pharmacokinetics.
• To enhance students’ ability to evaluate critically, and use effectively, current information sources on clinical pharmacology and therapeutics.
• To know the “essential drugs” and their common side effects and practice rational use of medicines.
• To encourage students to take part in pre-clinical toxicity studies, clinical and basic research.
• To present students with practical information on the clinical pharmacology of the major drug classes and the application of such information to the solution of therapeutic problems.
• To apply the knowledge imparted to individually carry out preventive and curative medicine with respect to the commonly encountered health problems in the community.
• To know the basics of pharmacovigilance and apply the same in detecting and reporting adverse drug reactions.
