Pills, Potions, and Poisons summer
field study provides students with an overview of the field of
pharmacology and its relationship to health, disease, and society.
Students will investigate questions such as:
-
How do drugs work?
-
What is the
difference between “good drugs” that cure disease and “bad drugs”
that produce addiction?
-
How do drugs treat
pain or cure cancer?
-
Why do only some
drugs work in the brain?
-
How do we discover
new drugs?
During the two-week day
camp, students will have lots to do exploring pharmacology through lab
experiments, debate, team projects, and field trips around the
scientific world of OSU. The program is sponsored by the Ohio State
