McMaster Hemophilia Research Group

A Postdoctoral Research Fellow position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Andrea Edginton in the School of Pharmacy, University of Waterloo. Our laboratory is active in developing model-based methods for application to clinical pharmacology. Our primary expertise is in physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling of small molecules and biologics for the purposes of extrapolation. We are also active in collaborative ventures with academic and industry partners. 

Specifically, we are working closely with the McMaster Hemophilia Research Group in Hamilton, Ontario on the Web-based Application for the Population Pharmacokinetic Service - Hemophilia (https://plus.mcmaster.ca/wapps-hemo/). The group has amassed a large database of PK data for Factor VIII and Factor IX and we are working closely with them to develop the population PK models used for the service and to use the sponsor and clinical data to conduct research.

The Postdoctoral Research Fellow must have demonstrated competence in non-linear mixed effects modelling with an interest in PBPK. This position will take an active role in the research as well as the PharmD and graduate teaching activities of the lab.

The post is available for one year, in the first instance.
