Introduction to Pharmacokinetics for the Non-Specialist
The vast majority of failures at late stage clinical trials and post marketing are due to druginteractions. Pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) play a key role in drug development, and a good understanding of the implications of PK/PD data is crucial when designing clinical trails or preparing a drug submission dossier. Throughout the pharmaceutical and biotech industries, there is a general lack of understanding of these crucial areas of knowledge. With PK data playing an ever more vital role in the development process, this lack of knowledge needs to be addressed, to increase real communication between depart...

Cosy Science presents: Repairing the brain with stem cells with Prof Jack Price
The first clinical trial of stem cells for a neurodegenerative disease in the UK is now underway. Does this mean that a new era of regenerative medicine for brain disorders is upon us? Could it also herald the advent of ‘human enhancement’ using stem cell technologies? Or is it possible that neuroscientists don’t really know what they are doing, and just got lucky? Jack Price is Professor of Developmental Neurobiology at the Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College London, and is Head of the Institute’s Centre for the Cellular Basis of Behaviour. He is also a consultant for ReNeuron Ltd., a...
