PharMetrX15 - Our PhD program celebrates its 15th anniversary: in March 2008 PharMetrX was launched.

What we achieved: a steadily growing, internationally recognised, transdiciplinary program of enthustiastic PhD students with backgrounds as diverse as the disciplines of pharmacometrics. We are happy to qualify and have built a network of next generations of pharmacometricians in different areas – academia, industry, health authority, consultant company, hospital–; thus to foster research and training in our scientific discipline. Happy Birthday and many thanks for advancing PharMetrX together!

Graduate Research Training Program:
Pharmacometrics & Computational Disease Modelling

What is pharmacometrics?

How to find the right drug and the right dosing regimen for a patient? How to make use of the wealth of information available - about the drug, the patho-/physiology, in vitro, nonclinical and clinical data? Pharmacometrics is the integrative science using in silico models to understand the drug-patient-disease relationships and to optimise drug therapy for better outcomes. Eager to learn more?
