Toxicology is the branch of science that studies the harmful effects of chemical agents found in our environment or ingested. The study areas of toxicology include the sources of toxic substances, their properties, routes of entry into the body, mechanisms of action, toxic doses, changes and effects in living organisms, treatments for poisoning, and the isolation and analysis of toxic substances. Toxicology investigates the cellular, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms of the adverse effects of chemical substances and identifies the associated risks. Within this scope, subfields such as clinical toxicology, environmental toxicology, industrial toxicology, forensic toxicology, analytical toxicology, and ecotoxicology have emerged. As a department of pharmaceutical toxicology, the aim is to teach students the fundamental knowledge in these areas and to equip them with the competence to apply them professionally.
There is 1 research laboratory (B1-15F) within our department.
