INTRODUCTION TO DATA ANALYSES IN DRUG DEVELOPMENT

PHMSCI 762

Overview of the drug development process from discovery to investigational new drug application (IND). Drug discovery (target identification, target validation, and hit-to-lead) preclinical CMC activities, and preclinical pharmacology, pharmacokinetic, and toxicology studies as they apply to both small and large molecule drugs.

PHMSCI 754

Explores business aspects of pharmaceutical product development and post-approval product maturation. Covers startup financing, risk management, intellectual property considerations, supply chain management, and strategic decision-making, as applied to both large and small pharmaceutical companies.

PHMSCI 759

Provides the experience and skill to find, read and critically analyze scientific and regulatory literature in the field of drug discovery and development.

PHMSCI 755

Teaches the theory and application of many common laboratory techniques and instruments used in drug discovery and development. Includes a laboratory component to teach safety and basic techniques necessary for working in a lab. Instruction begins with basic techniques and builds upon these techniques to instruct in proper sample preparation and handling for analysis using a variety of analytical instrumentation.

PHMSCI 757

Scientific process of drug development from discovery through clinical trials. Brief history of drug development, along with an overview of drug discovery, preclinical, and clinical activities that take place during development. Application to real-world drug development scenarios and challenges, especially as they apply to development of drugs to treat neurological diseases.
