About
With over 12 years at WinNonlin, R,Python and Julia languages and Pirana-NONMEM, Pumas, specialize in clinical pharmacology and pharmacometrics, focusing on nonclinical and clinical development. My work includes bioequivalence analysis, PK/PD modeling, and simulation for complex drug administration routes, leveraging advanced tools like WinNonlin, R , Python AI/ML, AI-driven RsNLME , Pirana-NONMEM and Julia-Pumas for accurate data-driven results. Dedicated to advancing translational medicine, I contribute to drug development pipelines by performing rigorous pharmacometric analyses and facilitating the transition from preclinical to clinical stages. My efforts align with regulatory compliance for submissions and support the optimization of novel therapies.
