PHSC 623 INTRODUCTION TO PHARMACOMETRICS: POPULATION PHARMACOKINETIC MODELING APPLICATION 2 Credit Hours
ELECTIVE
This class builds upon the fundamental foundation for Population Pharmacokinetic (PopPK) Modeling. Introduction to Pharmacometrics builds upon the topics discussed in PHSC 905 and 920. to a provide a more hands on approach to Pharmacometrics, where students will develop Population Pharmacokinetic models and apply them to different research questions. By the end of this course, students will be able to successfully run their own basic PopPK analyses. All modeling will be performed in the PmetricsTM platform/software, which has free access. Students will be required to bring laptops to class.
