Mathematical and Computational Sciences Special Interest Group of International Society of Pharmacometrics will present a one day workshop on Modeling Delays in Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics using Phoenix. The course will provide an overview of biological systems exhibiting delays, concepts of lifespan driven pharmacodynamic response, modeling of cell maturation, transduction delays, and nonlinear mixed effect lifespan models. Delay differential equations (DDEs) and distributed delay differential equations (DDDEs) will be introduced and implemented in Phoenix. The course will consist of both lectures and hands-on computer exercises. Source codes for DDE and DDDE based PK/PD models and data will be provided to the participants. For more information contact wk@buffalo.edu.
