Main themes
This course will detail the mechanisms of toxicity in a variety of target organs such as the liver and the nervous system but also in the very specific context of cancer. Molecular, cellular and functional aspects will be considered as well as the methodology for diagnostic and prevention. The course will be organized in modules centred on specific organs and illustrated by examples derived from frequent pathologies and/or issued from the News.
Aims
The major objective of this course is to provide students with the required bases to evaluate drug toxicity, the term "drug" being taken in its broader signification including medicines as well as illicit substances and fugi.
