Jeroen Jansen, PhD

Associate Professor

I am a member of the Center for Translational and Policy Research on Precision Medicine (TRANSPERS). I work on applied and methods research to understand the clinical and economic value of drugs and other health technologies.

Amelia Deitchman, PharmD, PhD

Assistant Professor

My research seeks to inform novel therapeutic strategies to cure HIV through better understanding of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of individual and combinations of candidate drugs. Based out of the UCSF Drug Research Unit (DRU), I work with a multidisciplinary team of clinicians-scientists...

Michael Douglas

Program Manager

As program manager for UCSF’s Department of Clinical Pharmacy Research Support Program, I lead comprehensive research initiatives across clinical and social sciences, specializing in genomic medicine and molecular diagnostics. I manage multiple research programs for seven principal investigators,...

Akinyemi Oni-Orisan, PharmD, PhD

Associate Professor

My lab conducts computational research investigating therapies for cardiovascular disease using observational data from electronic health records. I also teach pharmacy students in the Discovery Projects research program including leading the Health Disparities Discovery Group and serving as a...

Bani Tamraz, PharmD, PhD

Associate Professor

My primary interest is identification of genetic determinants of drug response through modern methods aimed at addressing pharmacogenomics research and translating that information into new diagnostics and treatment strategies at point-of-care.

Sourav Bandyopadhyay, PhD

Professor

I seek to understand, at the systems level, how biological networks within cancer cells are fundamentally different from those in normal cells. Using a variety of experimental techniques, I design new platforms for the rational application of personalized medicine and the design of combination...

Kathryn Phillips, PhD

Professor

My work focuses on the translation of new technologies into improved patient outcomes, particularly the translation of personalized/precision medicine—targeting health care interventions to patients based on their genetics—into clinical care and health policy.

Rada Savic, PhD

Vice Dean & Professor

As a faculty member in the Department of Bioengineering and Therapeutic Sciences, I investigate optimal drug discovery and development approaches using computational methods. I integrate data and knowledge to determine the optimal choices of precise and personalized treatments.
