Introduction to human toxicology. Toxicokinetics and toxicodynamics. Organ-specific toxicity and pathophysiology. Cellular and molecular mechanisms of xenobiotic toxicity. Toxicogenomics. Hazard and risk assessment. Detailed descriptions of specific toxicant examples, such as alcohol, metals, air pollutants, and endocrine disruptors. In utero exposure and prenatal programming. In vitro and in vivo models of toxicity.

LO1: Conceptualise the relationship between absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of major drugs and xenobiotics.
LO2: Evaluate the importance and role of dose-response relationships in toxicology.
LO3: Critically appraise the available models for toxicity assessment and the applicability and limitations of each
LO4: Discriminate the major target organs for xenobiotics and illustrate some of the associated effects in liver, lungs, skin, reproductive system, and nervous system.
LO5: Critically assess the effects of in utero exposure to environmental stimuli in relation to prenatal programming.
