The Department of Pharmacology and Molecular Therapeutics
Our mission is to ensure our students have a comprehensive understanding of how drugs work, their side effects, and how they can best be used to treat our soldiers and their families.
The Department of Pharmacology and Molecular Therapeutics, established by Dr. Louis Aronow in 1976, teaches both medical and graduate students in the actions and therapeutic uses and toxicity of drugs and other chemical agents and conducts research on pharmacological issues, with many projects addressing critical questions impacting the health and well-being of military personnel.
