Pharmacology at Yale
The Department of Pharmacology strives to create an inviting environment and institutional culture of inclusivity where every individual's unique and diverse characteristics are valued and respected. We sustain the richness of our department by recruiting and retaining trainees, staff, and faculty from diverse backgrounds and talents.
Visit the department of Pharmacology website to learn more or email to Joseph Schlessinger, Chair for Diversity and Inclusion.
Pharmacology at Yale University has a rich history of pre-eminence in drug discovery, indeed the first cancer chemotherapy clinical trials were conducted here. Today, the research in our department encompasses a broad range of fields , with researchers aiming to both understand and treat human disease. We are proud to have been ranked as the number one Pharmacology program among the medical schools of the USA by the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences.

The Drug Discovery program in Pharmacology is a multidisciplinary effort to explore new approaches for therapeutics by identifying a broad range of molecular targets for a variety of diseases.
The Department of Pharmacology at Yale University provides a cutting-edge environment and integrative strategies to decipher complex signal transduction networks.
The mechanisms which control all processes in the body occur at the molecular level. We use the tools of structural biology to investigate these basic mechanisms and to aid drug discovery.
Neuroscience research in Pharmacology consists of programs studying receptor, transporter and ion channel biology, cellular signaling and synaptic plasticity, sensory mechanisms in hearing and pain, the neurobiology of addiction, and mechanisms of nerve injury, protection and repair.
