Medical Areas of Interest
Research: My current research involves applying the pharmacometric methodology in the setting of pediatrics. Current projects: Histamine pharmacodynamics, morphine concentration-response relationship, sirolumus pharmacokinetics (in adults and pediatrics) and vancomycin pharmacokinetics in pediatric oncology patients. My research interests include dose optimization using Bayesian Forecasting.
Work Experience:
- 2015-2016 - Research Asisstant UNSW and St Vincent’s Hospital, Sydney
Educational Background:
I completed my undergraduate and graduate degrees at UNSW Australia. My doctoral thesis was supervised my Professors Richard Day, Kenneth Williams and Carl Kirkpatrick. I was mentored by Professor Garry Graham. The title of my doctoral thesis was “Exploring the value of population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modelling: in infectious disease, cancer and diabetes.”
