The Pharmacology and Toxicology Student’s Association (PTSA) is a course union supported by the Arts & Sciences Student Union (ASSU) representing undergraduate students enrolled in Pharmacology and Toxicology courses. We hold several academic and social events throughout the school year to familiarize the students with their peers, the Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology, and the Programs of Study offered by the department. We also provide academic support by offering past test packages, by presenting data from course and instructor evaluations, and by introducing students to innovative research conducted at the University of Toronto through our academic seminars. We look forward to seeing you at one of our events!
Meet the 2020-2021 Executive Team!
Co-Presidents
Emily Mathers
My name is Emily, and I am a fourth year pharmacology specialist. As co-president I want the PharmTox department to feel like home to all of you, like it does to me. I will work hard with the exec team to make our initiatives more engaging this year. I strive to learn something new every day, drink way too much tea, and love painting. Let’s create a fun & memorable year together!
