These psychopharmacology curriculums have been developed and published over the course of 40 years, and now in association with the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology. The aim over the years has been to advance the research, education, and practice of clinical psychopharmacology in part by providing the teaching content for the field.  The founders/creators of the curriculums are psychiatrists and other mental health professionals involved in clinical psychopharmacology or pharmacology.
