Pharmacologists seek to understand how chemical substances interact with the body. They work as part of a research team that is responsible for screening compounds, developing drugs and undertaking controlled experiments and clinical trials in laboratories. Their aim is to gain a better understanding of diseases, develop new drugs to treat them and promote the safe use of existing drugs. Other substances such as poisons and toxins are also studied by pharmacologists to try to understand how those substances can harm the body.
Typical responsibilities include:
designing and carrying out experiments
devising and testing hypotheses
testing drugs on cells or through clinical trials on humans
analysing and interpreting data (often using specialist computer applications)
making recommendations based on findings from research and experiments
laboratory and staff management
studying relevant literature
writing reports and papers
