Course Overview

We have scientists and clinicians working together on all aspects of pharmaceutical sciences and clinical pharmacy. This spans the fundamental understanding and concepts of drug action, the discovery of new drugs and development of medicines, the clinical management and rational use of medicines, to the professional role of the pharmacist in improving public health. The role of community pharmacy as a central fulcrum to address health inequalities and behavior change in relation to smoking, alcohol and substance misuse, sexual health, and obesogenic behaviors, amongst others. As the community pharmacy is the most frequent point of contact for patients and the public within the wider primary healthcare team, we evaluate the dynamics and interactions of this relationship and the potential role for pharmacy within the early diagnosis of disease and improvements in public health.
