CHEM 1330 - MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
An overview of modern and classical understanding of pharmaceutical chemistry will be discussed. Major topics covered include drug design and development, mechanism of action within biological systems, as well as biochemical responses to drug compounds - including (but not limited to) metabolism, distribution, toxicity, and secondary metabolites. Emphasis for the course will be from the pharmaceutical chemist's perspective, although this inherently requires understanding of aspects of biochemistry. Note: Prior or concurrent enrollment in a biochemistry course (BIOSC 1000/1810/1820) is not required but may help students gain deeper understanding of course content.
