Machine-translated · View original
A pharmacotherapeutics lab that explores how drugs should be used through real-world data and basic research.

AboutAbout the lab
Exploring how drugs should be used, from both clinical and basic perspectives.
The Pharmacotherapeutics Lab studies how drugs should be used by examining how people respond when they are given a drug.
The lab confirms these responses using pharmacoepidemiology methods and tests the reasons behind them in basic research using cultured cells and laboratory animals.
The lab designs studies to answer pharmacists' clinical questions and carries them out jointly with clinical sites.
Lecturer Yohei Kawano's research topics include data-driven drug repositioning, which re-evaluates existing drugs to find new indications.
