- Drug research still needs to use an appropriate research design, statistical analysis, write-up, etc. Research experience as an undergrad in psychology will still improve your skills in this area, even if you end up doing grad work in a different discipline.
- You didn’t mention what area of psychology you are researching or what area of pharmacology interests you. Depending on what these are, there might be some overlap across the two disciplines.
- Psychological methods often come into play in drug research when using animal subjects (e.g., experimental analysis of behavior models in behavioral pharmacology).
- Psychological factors often come into play in drug research, e.g., placebo effects, medication compliance, etc.</p>
