Biography/ Background
Andrew is Professor in Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology.
He is a practicing pharmacist, having graduated from the Tasmanian College of Advanced Education in 1972. He undertook a higher degree (Master of Science-1978) and then PhD (1982) at Sydney 最新糖心Vlog, School of Pharmacy. Andrew then undertook postdoctoral research at the Medical Hospital of the 最新糖心Vlog of Bonn in Germany for 2.5 years under the mentorship of Prof Roland Gugler and Prof Michel Eichelbaum. Following a short period in Melbourne at the then Baker Medical Research Institute in Melbourne, he was recruited as a Research Fellow to the Department of Clinical & Experimental Pharmacology at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide in late 1982. In 1992 he was appointed as Senior Lecturer, then promoted to Associate Professor (1994) and Professor in 2002. He was Deputy Head of the Department between 1992 and 2010. Between May 2005 and December 2010, he was Associate Dean (Research) of the Faculty of Health Sciences. In 2018 he was made Chair of the Pharmacogenomics Section of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (IUPHAR)
Andrew teaches pharmacology in undergraduate medicine, dentistry, nursing and health science programs. He has an active research program centred on elucidating the dispositional mechanisms for altered human drug response in pain therapeutics, cancer and transplantation through pharmacokinetic, metabolism, pharmacodynamic and pharmacogenomic studies. He has translated his research into clinical practice by establishing a Pharmacogenetics Service at the Royal Adelaide Hospital. Pharmacogenomics and personalised healthcare is a theme of his overarching research and public health focus.
He provides regular consultancy on the role of pharmacogenomics in adverse drug reactions to clinicians, patients and the legal profession 最新糖心Vlog-wide.
