Summary:

Dr. Aiden Nguyen is a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Paine’s lab. He earned his B.S. in chemistry, M.S. in pharmaceutical science, and Pharm.D. at Pacific University. He conducted pharmaceutical research in Dr. John Harrelson’s lab at Pacific University for several years before he joined Dr. Mary Paine’s lab last year. His primary focus was the translational study of drug metabolism inhibition by natural products and their analogs. His research interests are in clinical pharmacology, specifically drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, as well as modeling and simulation. His current research involves translational studies from in-vitro drug metabolism and inhibition (reversible and time-dependent) to clinical (pharmacokinetic) in human subjects, particularly on natural product-drug interaction with hemp/CBD and cinnamon. Furthermore, he assists in facilitating clinical pharmacokinetic studies by acting as a clinical coordinator.
