In Mexico, there is a high demand for professionals in research and teaching in the field of pharmacology, with a multidisciplinary approach that masters molecular and genetic methodological techniques that allow them to venture into the field of drug design and its potential link with the pharmaceutical industry.
There is no Doctoral program in Pharmacology in Mexico that links basic training with its clinical application, which is why there is an alarming lack of clinical pharmacologists training professionals capable of taking responsibility for the clinical evaluation of medicines, providing therapeutic advice in hospital centers and carrying out the professional evaluation of the toxic effects of medicines already in use (pharmacovigilance).
This Doctoral Program in Pharmacology at the University of Guadalajara is conceived as a multidisciplinary and multicenter program, structured with the coordinated participation of professionals from diverse areas working in various fields within the teaching, healthcare, and production sectors, such as University Centers, Hospital Units, and the Pharmaceutical Industry. Furthermore, it aims to establish coordinated regional collaboration with Research Centers and Human Resource Training Centers in our geographic area.
