Abstract:
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) pharmacology (PTCM) is a discipline that studies the interactions between Chinese medicines and the human body, as well as their underlying mechanisms, under the guidance of TCM theories while employing modern scientific techniques and methods. This article reviews the historical development and achievements of the PTCM discipline at the Institute of Chinese Materia Medica, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, and outlines the reform measures undertaken in recent years to advance the construction of the graduate course system in PTCM. Building upon the foundation of the "Special Topics in PTCM" course, the curriculum has been expanded through reforms to include a series of self-designed courses, such as foundational advanced courses, experimental pharmacology courses, pharmacological research tools courses, and applied TCM research courses. Along with enriching the graduate course system, the study explores innovative approaches and methods for graduate education and teaching in PTCM, and reflects on the challenges in course system construction and teaching, serving as a reference for improving the quality of graduate training, promoting the development of the PTCM discipline, and advancing teaching reform practices.
