Pharmacology is the scientific discipline concerned with investigations of the physiological and biochemical actions of endogenous compounds and drugs on living tissues.  These studies range in scope from investigations at the molecular level to clinical pharmacological responses in humans.  The ability of pharmacologists to elucidate basic mechanisms of drug action in living cells and biological systems has permitted the development of a rational approach to drug design and use.  The Graduate Program in Medical Pharmacology at The University of Arizona’s College of Medicine is multidisciplinary in nature offering both the MS and Ph.D. degrees with opportunities for research in molecular, neural, behavioral, gastrointestinal, immunological, cardiovascular, respiratory, cancer and ocular pharmacology.  The program’s faculty has appointments from the Departments of Anesthesiology, Medicine, Ophthalmology, Pharmacology, Physiology, Respiratory Sciences, Surgery, and the Arizona Cancer Center.
