Tox 711: Principles of Toxicology

Taken: Summer 2010
Instructor: Coral Lamartiniere

This class covered different aspects of toxicology. Many of the lectures in this class were a bit disjointed, and the first few lectures were very difficult to follow as they were geared towards those in the pharmacology/toxicology program. However, the second half of this class was more interesting and easier to follow even it wasn’t related to our program much at all. Quite a few people taught this class, including someone from Poison Control and the Southern Research Institute and some professors in the Pharmacology/Toxicology department. Overall, a great amount of effort was required to get through the class, and I don’t feel like I got much out of this class. Any information from this class that was even related to our program could’ve been easily obtained from other JS classes. If you’re looking for an elective to take over the summer, I would suggest taking something else.
