Primary interest area within the field of Infectious Diseases is with understanding the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of investigational and approved antibacterial agents and the translation into positive patient outcomes. Pre-clinical research: I have experience utilizing a variety of murine infection models including thigh infection, lung infection, and complicated urinary tract infection models to assess drug exposure-bacteria response relationships. Have experience in conventional and novel susceptibility testing modalities (phenotypic tests and PCR platforms). Clinical research: Experienced in the coordination and management of clinical trials assessing clinical response and drug pharmacokinetics in a variety of populations ranging from healthy volunteers to critically ill. In addition, I have experience with pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling and simulation of animal and human data. In my current role as Associate Director, I serve as Principal Investigator for several federal and industry-funded studies in the pre-clinical and clinical stages.
