Textbook and Reading Materials

Updated 9/16/2026

Textbook: Principles of Pharmacology: The Pathophysiologic Basis of Drug Therapy (Fifth Edition)

This book is most useful for the initial section of the course and for reference later on. The book is available in multiple libraries but you can also rent it at the link above. The previous edition is available inexpensively as a used book (if you are staying in the field you might want to buy a copy).

Other Reading Materials. Other reading materials will be assigned from time to time. Typically these will be published research or white papers. If these are in the public domain they will be posted on the open part of our web site. If they are copyrighted they will be made available to enrolled students via the "Course Materials" section of the site.
