Pharmacology Grand Rounds is offered every Tuesday from 8:30 to 9:30 am in the Light Hall 512 at VUMC. Format rotates between presentations by visiting speakers and Vanderbilt faculty on cutting edge science and discussion of challenging cases. At Vanderbilt, the Division of Clinical Pharmacology has traditionally pursued translational research, attempting to understand how basic molecular, biochemical and cellular processes are altered in various pathological conditions and seeking to identify novel therapeutic interventions for human diseases.
