About This Podcast

Welcome to Eight Drugs a Week, a podcast about the latest in clinical pharmacology. Your hosts are Florian Lemaitre (France) and Jana Stojanova (Australia), a pair of pharmacology nerds and Beatles fans. Join us on this journey as we catch up with colleagues around the world and discuss new developments. We'll delve right into how drug exposure relates to effects and how we can optimize drug concentrations to personalize treatment. Eight Drugs a Week is supported by the International Association of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and Clinical Toxicology (IATDMCT). The personal views of the hosts and guests do not necessarily reflect the position of the Association.
