Through work that span from molecular, cell- and organ-based studies in humans and animals and mathematical modeling and simulation techniques, our research and teaching focus on understanding the processes that determine the exposure and pharmacological response to drugs. We focus on physiological and disease processes, genetics and environmental impacts that alter metabolism, transport, distribution and absorption of drugs. The highly collegial Department faculty, students, post-doctoral fellows and staff pursue these multidisciplinary and translational goals through collaboration within the School of Pharmacy, University of Washington campus and national and international institutions.<\/p>\n<h2>Latest Department News<\/h2>\n<p><head><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-posts su-posts-news-loop\">\n<\/head><\/p>\n<div class=\"su-post-meta\" style=\"em\" >Posted: June 17, 2026<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"su-post-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/staff.washington.edu\/twentzel\/wordpress\/sop-makes-a-strong-showing-at-aspet-annual-meeting\/\">SOP Makes a Strong Showing at ASPET Annual Meeting<\/a><\/h4>\n<div id=\"su-post-34863\" class=\"su-post\">\n<div class=\"su-post-excerpt\">\n<p>UW School of Pharmacy faculty, students and trainees were well represented at the recent 2026 American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics Annual Meeting, showcasing the depth of discovery, leadership and scientific excellence across our&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr>\n<p><!-- \t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/staff.washington.edu\/twentzel\/wordpress\/sop-makes-a-strong-showing-at-aspet-annual-meeting\/#respond\" class=\"su-post-comments-link\">0 comments<\/a> -->\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"su-post-meta\" style=\"em\" >Posted: May 18, 2026<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"su-post-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/staff.washington.edu\/twentzel\/wordpress\/tlc-art-investigational-approval\/\">TLC-ART Investigational Approval<\/a><\/h4>\n<div id=\"su-post-34604\" class=\"su-post\">\n<div class=\"su-post-excerpt\">\n<p>Professor and WE-REACH Excecutive Director Rodney J Ho and his team in the UW School of Pharmacy\u2019s targeted, long-acting therapy program (called TLC-ART) have achieved a breakthrough in technology to transform the most prescribed 3&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr>\n<p><!-- \t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/staff.washington.edu\/twentzel\/wordpress\/tlc-art-investigational-approval\/#respond\" class=\"su-post-comments-link\">0 comments<\/a> -->\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Explore the Department of Pharmaceutics<\/h2>\n<div class=\"box-outer\">\n<div class=\"box two box-none\">\n<div class=\"tile\">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nov24-Faculty-Photo-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of Pharmaceutics Faculty\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"tile-text\">\n<h4><a href=\"\/department-of-pharmaceutics\/faculty\/\">Faculty Directory<\/a><\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tile\">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-Graduation.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of Faculty at graduation ceremony\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"tile-text\">\n<h4><a href=\"\/department-of-pharmaceutics\/graduate-education-training-programs\/\">Graduate Education &amp;
