Short presentation

I’m a PhD student in the Tropical Pharmacology and Therapeutics Group at the Department of Pharmacy. My research focuses on translational pharmacometric approaches to drug development for neglected skin infections. Specifically, I develop semi-mechanistic PK/PD models that link target-site skin pharmacokinetics to parasite clearance and lesion healing, helping inform dose selection for novel antileishmanial drug candidates.
