Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the community but have a little to offer in terms of knowledge--I'm a Ph.D. student in neuroscience and was heavily trained in pharmacology so the information I carry has a different angle but am interested in sharing what i know and learning a lot from the forums. Nice to meet everyone!

That's cool, did you study pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics? I was in pharmaceutics for a year at a University in Arizona. It was mainly about drug delivery forms like MDI's and basically anything that wasn't oral.

 
We covered pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.....the course was psychopharmacology so we focused specifically on many of the drugs discussed about on this site....my particular lab does research with pharmaceuticals so I am familiar with dose responses and much of the background in the chemistry etc.....and also how tolerance issues are addressed etc (pairings with antagonists, PKC/PKA inhibitors, etc)......as I am attaining my PhD in neuroscience we focus mainly on drugs of abuse lol

 
Nice one.

Althought I was getting a 4.0 and got passed A-Chem with an A, I ended up quitting. The professor I was under just didn't give a shit and never left his office (except to get coffee) So while I was working unguided on a project for 7 months I was getting pretty pissed off. The final straw came when he happened to saunter into the lab one day and looked at my data and research. Then he said, "I think we're going to have to do this another way." WTF!

I was so mad - 7 months down the drain and he wouldn't talk to me in all that time until it came time to fill in grant requests. He had a long history of students dropping out. Thinking back on it I should have probably transfered to Pharmtox if they'd have me.

 
Interesting stories, my friends. Interesting.

How about garbology?

Anybody interested in that area of study/profession, other than me?

DITCH

 
No, that's Tony Soprano's field except it's called Waste Management.

You will end up in a deep grave instead of East Ditch.

Hmmmmmm.....

"Deep graves" aren't so bad as long as there's free WiFi. The last grave I was in had not much of anything.

Awfully boring, I must say....

  8. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yes the mars almond was in a white-ish wrapper
  9. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Oh god! Way too much nuance and variation between Mars, Milky Way, and 3 musketeers. There’s was a special mars that had almond. A Mars bar from the UK is closer to a snickers than a traditional mars. What a rabbit hole though.
  10. S @ sawganaut: Snobording ok skiisss

  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: Anyone remember mars bars? I remember as a kid going over to my grandpas he’d keep them in the freezer we’d get there and go right for them haha so good think had almonds in them probably similar to a snickers almond
  13. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Okay, somehow I missed putting my two cents in during the chocolate discussion. The big near-half-pound slab of Hersheys Symphony bar with the BLUE label is hands down the best mainstream chocolate bar in America. You folks over across the pond kill it with Cadbury’s and I won’t deny it’s the best but those damn blue symphonies have me hooked.
