Short presentation
I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Tropical Pharmacology and Therapeutics Group at the Department of Pharmacy. My research applies pharmacometric modeling to optimize treatment strategies for poverty-related and neglected tropical diseases, including leishmaniasis, malaria, and mycetoma.
Keywords
- PK/PD modeling
- PBPK modeling
- Pharmacokinetics
