Under the patronage of Professor Dr. Nash’at Mubarak Sliwa, President of the University of Al-Hamdaniya, and under the supervision of Assistant Professor Dr. Ahlam Dara Aziz, Director of the Center for Continuing Education, the Center organized a scientific workshop in collaboration with the Joint Coordination and Monitoring Unit and the Department of Scientific Affairs. The workshop, titled “Mechanism of Drug Action on the Nervous System” was held on Thursday, October 23, 2025, and was presented by Lecturer Estabraq Ali Hamid.
The workshop aimed to clarify the structure and function of the nervous system, and to explain how drugs affect it by stimulating or inhibiting neurotransmitters. It also addressed how medications work, the potential for neurotoxicity, and discussed the differences between dosage, absorption, distribution, and elimination—and how these factors influence drug efficacy and toxicity.
