Taken Summer 2009
Instructor: Coral Lamartiniere
This course was actually taught by several guest speakers rather than one professor. Topics include poison control information, ethics of animal care, toxicology in the emergency room, regulatory toxicology and cytochrome P450 information. Some weeks and lectures were more interesting than others.
The summer course consisted of only two exams, which were comprised of essay and short answer questions. There was an abundance of material to study for exam one, but questions only covered about 8 topics (20 pts/?). This was a problem because you are not told what specifically to study or that there are so few questions worth so much; however, partial credit is given.
Most people taking the course are IBS or tox grad students so without a tox background, material can be confusing at times. Despite this, the course is not difficult if you just study.
No books are needed for this course, all lectures were provided on powerpoint.
