Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences

Our PhD/MPhil Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences programme enables you to undertake a research project that will improve understanding of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences.

Our areas of research within pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences include:
- Development of novel nucleic acid-based diagnostics and therapeutics;

- Modelling and simulation of pharmacokinetics, drug-drug interactions and pharmacodynamics in healthy virtual populations;

- Modelling and simulation of pharmacokinetics, drug-drug interactions and pharmacodynamics in patient populations;

- Analysis of inter-individual variability in drug metabolizing enzyme activity;

- Optimal design of early phase clinical trials with new therapies and drug combinations;

- Applications of systems biology approach to prediction of drug absorption, distribution and Elimination;

- Extrapolation of in vitro data to predict in vivo pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics;

- Applications of PKPD in drug development and therapeutics, particularly endocrinology, drug abuse, and paediatric pharmacology.
