Goal
The goal of this pharmacology class (for 3 weeks) is to reveal the mechanism of human disease treatment through pharmacotherapy, and understand the concepts and basics of Pharmacology encompassing a wide range of drug development process from in vitro development of novel drug to applying it to patients through clinical trials.
By educating and discovering the professional manpower in new drug development process, this class lays the foundation for a step closer to understanding of human pathophysiology and treatment of incurable diseases through the new drug development and drug.

Goal
There are two main goals for this practice (for 2 weeks).
Firstly, it is to having basic pharmacotherapy knowledge and utilization abilities as a doctor. Also, it is to understand the importance of personalized optimal pharmacotherapy and learn tools and approaches to apply it to patient care.
Secondly, it is to gain experience as a medical scientist and clinical researcher. Also, it is understanding the concepts and basic research ethics of the translational research that deals with the link between pharmacology (the mechanism of action of drug) and clinical medicine (individualized pharmacotherapy).
