PHAR 7321 Pharmacology of Infectious Diseases


3 SCH. PHAR 7321 is a PY2, 3-hours credit, classroom-based course that through engaging exercises helps students understand: a) fundamental concepts regarding microbiological agents known to cause human diseases b) core principles for use of anti-infective agents and c) implementation of anti-infective agents into patients and health systems. PHAR 7321 builds on selected concepts introduced in PHAR 7411, PHAR 7313, and PHAR 7412 pertaining to infectious conditions and their prevention and management.
