Haojie Zhu is a Professor in the Department of Clinical Pharmacy, University of Michigan College of Pharmacy. He graduated from the China Pharmaceutical University with a major in Pharmacy, and further received his M.S. and Ph.D. in Pharmacology from the same University. He also holds an MBA degree from Nanjing University. He was a licensed Pharmacist as well as a trained Dentist in China. Dr. Zhu completed his post-doctoral training in Pharmacogenomics, Pharmacokinetics, and Neuropsychopharmacology at the Medical University of South Carolina. His research focuses on identifying genetic variants and environmental regulators that impact pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of various therapeutic agents using an integrated multi-omics approach (e.g., genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics). The generated information can be used to guide the personalized use of medications to maximize efficacy while minimizing the risk of adverse effects.
