Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to offer a course “The 3rd advanced pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic course” in Chengdu, China August 16-19, 2020. For more information and registration see below. *The 3rd advanced pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic course* *COURSE OUTLINE* Current approaches in the field of PK/PD involve development of models based on mechanisms of drug action and their alteration of physiologic processes. This course will provide a comprehensive overview of the principles, techniques, and applications of PK/PD modeling with a partial emphasis on modeling therapeutic proteins. Such modeling allows the optimal design and interpretation of pharmacologic experiments that range from molecular biology to human responses and can expedite the drug development process. Lectures and examples from the recent literature will be provided with course notes for each participant. Selected models or examples will have a computer listing to show how to quantitate typical experimental data. At the conclusion of this course, the biomedical scientist with basic knowledge in pharmacokinetics will be able to understand the diverse array of available PK/PD models and begin to apply them to experimental data and to simulate anticipated drug responses. *COURSE DIRECTION* William J. Jusko, PhD Dr. Jusko is SUNY Distinguished Professor and former Chair of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Buffalo and received the Doctor Honoris Causae from the University of Paris Descartes in Sept 2015. He supervises a research program on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of immunosuppressive, anticancer, and antidiabetic drugs. and holds NIH grants in the areas of corticosteroid PK/PD and mathematical modeling. He has authored over 600 publications, consults for the FDA, NIH, and the pharmaceutical industry, and is listed in ISI Most Highly Cited in Pharmacology. Donald E. Mager, PhD Dr. Mager is Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York. He has been a fellow of the American Foundation for Pharmaceutical Education and received the New Investigator Award in Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Drug Metabolism from the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists in 2007. Dr. Mager has served as a Visiting Professor at the Université Paris Descartes and on the Advisory Committee on Clinical Pharmacology to the FDA. His research invokes PK/PD systems analysis to characterize drug effects, with particular interest in anti-cancer and immuno-modulatory pharmacotherapy. *COURSE PROGRAM* *Aug 16 Day 1* 13:00-17:00 Register & Reception *Aug 17 Day 2* 08:20-08:30 1.
