This full-time Master's programme provides a comprehensive overview of drug safety practices within the drug development process. It addresses key aspects of preclinical drug evaluation through the study of: • Drug discovery and development • Safety pharmacology • Mechanisms of drug-induced toxicities • Regulatory affairs • Bioanalytical sciences It will give you state-of-the-art training in preclinical toxicology, with an emphasis on the molecular in vitro and in vivo aspects of toxicology and safety pharmacology assessments. As part of the programme you will undertake an original research project that will be the basis of your dissertation. Delivered at the Institute of Cancer Therapeutics, an internationally renowned research institution, the programme gives you the skills you need for a career in the pharmaceutical industry or regulatory bodies, along with the foundations for PhD study. Drug toxicology and safety pharmacology lies at the heart of the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, and demand for highly skilled practitioners in this field is extremely high.
To provide a comprehensive understanding of the background and current issues in research into an area ofdrug discovery. To broaden students' appreciation of the wide range of research in drug discovery.
To develop a critical evaluative understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying cellular toxicity. Emphasis is placed on emerging concepts that reflect the changing nature of modern drug development. The module will address the mechanisms responsible for drug target toxicity and the evolution of new preclinical strategies to identify and predict such mechanisms.
To provide a comprehensive understanding of selected important advanced pharmacology techniques; todevelop student autonomy in learning and to develop research skills as well as enhance written communicationskills and accurate data recording and analysis.
To provide students with the opportunity to develop- The knowledge and ability to solve complex problems andjustify their decisions.- Techniques for current and critical evaluation of pre-clinical models used to evaluatepotential anti-cancer drugs.- An understanding of the ethics involved in experimental work with animals.- Theability to reflect on their practice to inform and plan their professional development.
