Name: Student Number: Major in Medical Cell Biology + Western Email: Major in Pharmacology 11.0 unique courses must be completed for the modular requirements for the Major in Medical Cell Biology + Major in Pharmacology • check the boxes below and type in the courses you have taken, are taking, and/or are planning to take • see Course Selection for choosing courses in Years 2-4, the Academic Calendar for course requisites and Access to Courses for info about constraints • no course can be used in two places below, e.g. Physiology 3120 can only be used toward Major in Pharmacology 0.5 Biochemistry 2280A 0.5 Chemistry 2213A 1.5 Biology 2290F/G, 2382A/B and 2581A/B 0.5 Biology/Statistics 2244A/B 0.5 One of Biology 3316A/B or Physiology 3140A 1.0 Anatomy and Cell Biology (ACB) 3309 1.0 ACB 2200B + one of ACB 3200A, 3329B or 3700G 1.0 1.0 4000-level Anatomy and Cell Biology + 1.0 Pharmacology 3620 1.0 Physiology 3120 1.0 Physiology and Pharmacology 3000E 1.0 1.0 4000-level Pharmacology + 0.5 0.5 substitute course for either the Major in Med Cell Biology or Major in Pharmacology = 11.0 courses Full details about the Common Course Policy are found on the BMSc website. For these Double Majors, there are 1.5 “common courses”: Biochemistry 2280A, Biology 2382A/B, and Chemistry 2213A. The two common half courses with the highest marks are double-counted/used toward both Major modules. The remaining common half course is used only toward one of the Majors leaving the other Major short of a half course. A half “substitute course” must then be taken for the Major that is short by a half course. Look at the Substitute Course lists to see whether you prefer the substitute courses that have been approved for one Major vs. the other Major. If you prefer to take a course listed in the substitute course list for the Major in Pharmacology, then the remaining common half course is used toward the Major in Medical Cell Biology and the substitute half course is used toward the Major in Pharmacology.

Intelligent Design, Abiogenesis, and Learning from History: Dennis R
Author Exchange Intelligent Design, Abiogenesis, and Learning from History: Dennis R. Venema A Reply to Meyer Dennis R. Venema Weizsäcker’s book The World View of Physics is still keeping me very busy. It has again brought home to me quite clearly how wrong it is to use God as a stop-gap for the incompleteness of our knowledge. If in fact the frontiers of knowledge are being pushed back (and that is bound to be the case), then God is being pushed back with them, and is therefore continually in retreat. We are to find God in what we know, not in what we don’t know; God wants us to realize his presence, not in unsolved problems but in those that are solved. Dietrich Bonhoeffer1 am thankful for this opportunity to nature, is the result of intelligence.

Meyer’s origin of biological information: if infor- critiques of my review fall into two gen- mation only ever arises from intelli- eral categories.

A few logical evolution, rendering several of examples from Signature make the point my arguments superfluous.

Pharmacology 101 Tyler Fischback, PharmD, BCPS, DPLA Clinical Pharmacy Manager Confluence Health Wenatchee, WA Objectives • Define Pharmacology, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics • Understand how drug interactions work • Understand how some specific drugs behave in the body (opioids, benzodiazepines, amiodarone) • Apply pharmacology principles into practice Medication Errors and Adverse Drug Events • Error: An error of commission or omission at any step along the pathway that begins when a clinician prescribes a medication and ends when the patient actually received the medication. • ADE: Harm experienced by a patient as a result of exposure to a medication. ADE does not necessarily indicate an error or poor care. However, ~1/2 of ADEs are preventable. Anyone here ever seen a medication error or adverse drug event? Anyone here ever made a medication error? How many different prescription medications are available on the U.S. market? 1,000 So, it’s no surprise why we see so many problems………………… EXCEPT……. The real number is 10,000 Adverse Drug Events • ~1/3 of U.S. adults use 5 or more medications • Annually, ADE = 700,000 ER visits and 100,000 hospitalizations • So, is pharmacology important to your work? • Additionally, 5% of hospitalized patient experience an ADE during their stay • High risk: Anticoagulants, Opioids, Insulin, Cardiac, and Transitions of Care Adverse Drug Events, cont. • Elderly are more susceptible • Pediatrics patients more susceptible (weight-based dosing), especially liquids • Caregivers and patients admittedly

Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pharmacology of Transporters for Organic Cations
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Editorial Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pharmacology of Transporters for Organic Cations Giuliano Ciarimboli Experimental Nephrology, Department of Internal Medicine D, University Hospital Münster, 48149 Münster, Germany; [email protected] This editorial summarizes the 13 scientific papers published in the Special Issue “Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pharmacology of Transporters for Organic Cations” of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. In this Special Issue, the readers will find integrative information on transporters for organic cations. Besides reviews on physi- ology, pharmacology, and toxicology of these transporters [1–3], which offer a concise overview of the field, the readers will find original research work focusing on specific transporter aspects. Specifically, the review “Organic Cation Transporters in Human Physiology, Phar- macology, and Toxicology” by Samodelov et al. [1] summarizes well the general as- pects of physiology, pharmacology, and toxicology of transporter for organic cations. The other review “Organic Cation Transporters in the Lung—Current and Emerging (Patho)Physiological and Pharmacological Concepts” by Ali Selo et al. [2] focuses on these aspects of transporters for organic cations in the lung, an important but often ne- glected field. In the paper “Systems Biology Analysis Reveals Eight SLC22 Transporter Subgroups, Including OATs, OCTs, and OCTNs”, by performing a system biology analysis of SLC22 transporters, Engelhart et al. [4] suggest the existence of a transporter–metabolite network. They propose that, in this network, mono-, oligo-, and multi-specific SLC22 transporters Citation: Ciarimboli, G. Physiology, interact to regulate concentrations and fluxes of many metabolites and signaling molecules. Biochemistry, and Pharmacology of In particular, the organic cation transporters (OCT) subgroup seems to be associated with Transporters for Organic Cations.
