researchers in a pharmacy laboratory


The USC School of Pharmacy prides itself on its multi-faceted, collaborative, and translational research enterprise. Our four departments (Clinical Pharmacy, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Pharmaceutical and Health Economics, and Regulatory and Quality Sciences) provide a unique and dynamic landscape for research success; spanning from critical basic science discoveries and key clinical trials, to the translation of those findings into patient care, regulatory and health care policy.

Our relationships within USC, such as the Keck School of Medicine, the Viterbi School of Engineering, and Dornsife College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences, as well as our numerous external academic and industry partnerships, provide invaluable expertise and collaborative potential.

Additionally, we offer a variety of investigative resources to our faculty and collaborators including a translational lab facility, histology lab, lentiviral lab and access to the Optum Clinformatics Data Mart, along with a wide variety of other databases through the Schaeffer Center Data Core. Combined, these resources aim to promote a climate of success for our faculty, students, and collaborators.
