Mentor Areas
My research focuses on identifying factors that contribute to inter-individual variability in drug response. In particular, I am studying the analgesic response to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (like ibuprofen) and need for opioids in acute post-surgical dental pain, with the goal of predicting the optimal analgesic regimen for an individual patient prior to surgery.
