Educational Resources for Biological Psychology, Neuroscience, and Psychopharmacology
For those learning (or teaching) psychopharmacology, I hope you'll find this page to be a helpful resource. Here you'll find links to resources, study materials, class activities, and ideas for assignments.

The American Psychologocial Association provides an excellent resource for students and educations on psychology topics, including neuroscience and psychopharmacology. While some content requires a membership with APA, other content is freely available through this link.
ASPET (American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics) provides a website with many educational and teaching resources in pharmacology.
Brain Facts is a neuroscience educational resource for students and teachers. The site is sponsored by the Society for Neuroscience and has a host of educational topics along with a three dimension brain. Content is regularly updated.
Once students learn about receptor binding affinities (see chapter 4 in the textbook), I like to refer to Bryan Roth's receptor Ki database for drugs. If you're not familiar with this database, this is an invaluable centralized resource for published and original receptor binding data on compounds. All compiled data includes summarized methodological information, such as the reference compound, tissue, and species, along with a citation that links to Pubmed. Helpful for students, instructors, and researchers (although you never truly stop being a student!).
