Richard Hoglund

Richard Hoglund heads the pharmacometrics group at the department of Clinical Pharmacology, MORU. He has a background in chemical engineering and pharmacology and his research is mainly focused on pharmacometrics, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and mathematical modelling in tropical medicine research, with a particular focus on antimalarial therapy.

More specific, his main research aims to optimise current and future antimalarial therapies by utilizing pharmacometric methodologies. A pharmacometric modelling approach can identify specific groups at risk of treatment failure and the derived pharmacometric models can help to evaluate and suggest new dose regimens to improve the treatment of malaria.
