Handbook of Pharmacokinetics and Toxicokinetics (2nd Ed.)

Langue : Anglais

Auteur :

Couverture de l’ouvrage Handbook of Pharmacokinetics and Toxicokinetics

This fully revised and expanded volume is an effort to blend the common approaches to pharmacokinetics and toxicokinetics. It integrates the principles held in common by both fields through a logical and systematic approach, which includes mathematical descriptions of physical and physiological processes employed in the approaches to pharmacokinetics and toxicokinetics modeling. It emphasizes general principles and concepts and related, isolated applications and case study observations. The systematic compilation of mathematical concepts and methodologies allows readers to decide on relevant concepts and approaches for their research, scientific or regulatory decisions, or for offering advanced courses/workshops and seminars.

Features:

  • Comprehensive handbook on principles and applications of PK/TK appealing to a diverse audience including scientists and students
  • An excellent text fully revised and fully updated for anyone interested in the theoretical and practical pharmacokinetics
  • The systematic compilation of mathematical concepts and methodologies allows readers to decide on relevant concepts and approaches for their research
  • Incorporates research relevant to SDGs and of interest to industrial and regulatory environmental scientists involved in chemical contamination research and regulatory decision making related to soil, water, and ocean
  • Includes sections on applications and case studies

Dr Mehdi Boroujerdi earned his PhD in pharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1978. He completed his post-doctoral training at the National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences at Research Triangle Park. He served as professor of pharmaceutics/pharmacokinetics with tenure at Northeastern University, Boston, MA (1982–2002); professor of pharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics at the MCPHS University, School of Pharmacy, Boston, MA (2002–2005); professor of pharmaceutical sciences with tenure at the Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Albany, New York (2005–2015); and professor of pharmaceutical sciences with tenure at the College of Health Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Lowell, MA (2015–2017).

Dr Boroujerdi has also served as Dean of the School of Pharmacy at Bouvé College of Health Sciences at Northeastern University (1988–1999); as Dean of the School of Pharmacy-Boston at MCPHS University (2002–2005); as Dean of Pharmacy and Vice President for Academic Affairs, Provost, at the Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (2006–2012); and Founding Dean of the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences at the College of Health Sciences, University of Massachusetts at Lowell (2015–2017). He also served as the Dean of Research and Graduate Studies at MCPHS (2003–2005), and Director of Graduate Programs in Biomedical Sciences at Northeastern University (1988–1999).

Dr Boroujerdi has 112 peer-reviewed publications and is the sole author of two books Pharmacokinetics, Principles and Applications (McGraw Hill, 2002) and Pharmacokinetics and Toxicokinetics (CRC Publications, 2015). He has trained many graduate and undergraduate students through his research programs focused on pharmacokinetics and toxicodynamics of anticancer drugs, carcinogenesis, and efflux proteins. He also served as consultant to five pharmaceutical
