Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Mehdi Boroujerdi received his Ph.D. in pharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics with minor in biochemistry from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1978. He completed his post-doctoral training at the National Institute of Health, National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences at Research Triangle Park. He served as the professor of pharmaceutics/pharmacokinetics with tenure at Northeastern University, Boston, MA (1982-2002); professor of pharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics at the MCPHS University, School of Pharmacy. Boston, MA (2002-2005); professor of pharmaceutical sciences with tenure at the Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, Albany, New York (2005-2015 with tenure); and professor of pharmaceutical sciences with tenure at the College of Health Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Lowell, MA (2015-2017).

Mehdi Boroujerdi has also served as Dean of School of Pharmacy at Bouvé College of Health Sciences at Northeastern University (1988-1999); as Dean of School of Pharmacy-Boston at MCPHS University (2002-2005); as Dean of Pharmacy and Vice President for Academic Affairs, Provost, at the Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (2006-2012); and Founding Dean of School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences at the College of Health Sciences, University of Massachusetts at Lowell (2015-2017). He also served as the Dean of Research and Graduate Studies at MCPHS (2003-2005), and Director of Graduate Programs in Biomedical Sciences at Northeastern University (1988-1999).

Dr. Mehdi Boroujerdi has 112 peer-reviewed publications; and is the sole author of three books (Pharmacokinetics, Principles and Applications (McGraw Hill, 2002), Pharmacokinetics and Toxicokinetics (CRC Publications, 2015), and Handbook of Pharmacokinetics and Toxicokinetics (CRC Publications, 2023). He has trained many graduate and undergraduate students through his research programs focused on pharmacokinetics and toxicodynamics of anticancer drugs, carcinogenesis, and efflux proteins.

He also served as consultant to five pharmaceutical industries.

As professor he taught graduate courses in advanced pharmacokinetics and biopharmaceutics, drug metabolism, advanced pharmaceutics, and drug delivery systems, his teaching of undergraduate courses included drug discovery and development, biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics, physical pharmacy and pharmaceutics, and pharmacokinetics in disease states.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book is an inquiry into the application of the principles and the methodologies of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics for the endogenous compounds creatine and creatinine, and assesses presence of nonlinear in vivo kinetics for creatine while providing new pathways for studies and bench research.
