K. Sandy Pang received her B.Sc. in Pharmacy from the University of Toronto and her Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Chemistry from the University of California at San Francisco. She completed her postdoctoral training at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, MD. Her research focuses on pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, drug development, and drug safety. Specifically, her work emphasizes the role of enzyme and transporter heterogeneity in organ clearance and metabolite kinetics. Dr. Pang has developed innovative pharmacokinetic models that enhance the prediction of drug metabolite concentrations in various tissues such as the liver, intestine, kidney, and brain. Her laboratory has also created novel intestinal flow models to study drug absorption and metabolism, helping to explain the higher extent of intestinal removal during oral drug administration. Her research in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modeling is significant for understanding drug-drug interactions, especially in the context of diseases like chronic kidney disease.
