   AMS 591 – Introduction to Toxicology II

This course continues to introduce students to the principles and practice of toxicology. The course continues to focus on basic principles, mechanisms and common methods underpinning the science of toxicology. Selected toxicants are studied with respect to their source of exposure and mechanisms of effect. Selected disease processes (e.g. mutagenesis, carcinogenesis and teratogenesis) are studied with respect to understanding their basic pathways and common mechanisms. Selected fields are presented to give students insight into the applications of toxicology and its relationships with other fields.
