Chien earned second place in the division for drug discovery and development poster competition with her research, titled: \u201cDevelopment of KRAS-Targeting siRNA and Chemotherapy Co-Delivery Chitosan Nanoparticles for Enhanced Treatment of Pancreatic Cancer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Simon won first place in the division for drug metabolism and disposition poster competition with her research titled \u201cThe Oxidation of \u03949-THC and its Primary Metabolites Show Regiospecificity by Cytochrome P450 Enzymes (CYPs).\u201d<\/p>\n

Vicky Sun<\/b>, a PhD student in pharmaceutics, was selected to present a four-minute abstract at the ASPET Annual Meeting. Her talk, \u201cImpact of Enteroid Culture Methods on Nutrient and Xenobiotic Transporter Expression,\u201d was delivered alongside presentations from three other student trainees. In addition to this prestigious selection, Sun was awarded the 2025 ASPET Annual Meeting Student-Postdoc Travel Award.<\/p>\n

Christopher Arian, PhD (\u201824)<\/b> a pharmaceutics alum, was honored with the prestigious James R. Gillette Award.

Professor Joanne Wang<\/b> of the Department of Pharmaceutics was recognized with the ASPET Journals Top Reviewer Award for Molecular Pharmacology. This award was established to honor the top-performing reviewers from the previous 24-month period, based on various metrics. Wang has reviewed the largest number of papers for Molecular Pharmacology this year, totaling 16 reviews. Her balanced and constructive comments have consistently helped authors enhance the quality of their articles. Dr. Wang’s dedication and expertise as an ASPET volunteer manuscript reviewer make her a leader in her field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
