Case Studies Series
The aim of this series is to set pharmacology in its wider context, through talks by people who use pharmacology in their work, such as pharmaceutical companies, consultants, government agencies and charities.
These talks are on Friday afternoons at 12:30pm, in the Seminar Room, with tea and cake after the seminar.
Case Studies and Tea Clubs are important parts of the course. We expect all Part II students to attend all of these talks.
