The “Basic, Translational and Clinical Pharmacy Research” group is committed to advancing personalized medicine. Our research covers a variety of topics, such as the chemical and functional stability of drugs, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacogenetics. We also meticulously evaluate the safety, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness of new medications, while exploring the rapidly evolving fields of mobile health, telemedicine, and artificial intelligence. Our team excels in interdisciplinary research and values collaboration, actively engaging in joint projects with other groups. In 2024, our group has had 37 members and has produced 45 publications, 20 of them ranked in the top quartile. Our goal is to enhance the safety and efficacy of pharmacological treatments. By leveraging our clinical expertise, we identify knowledge gaps and unmet needs, and analyze real-world clinical data to ensure our findings are directly applicable to practice.
