Presenter Details

Akinyemi Oni-Orisan, PharmD, PhD
Associate Professor, Department of Clinical Pharmacy; 
Associate Director, Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics Postdoctoral Training Program
University of California, San Francisco

Dr. Oni-Orisan is an associate professor at the University of California, San Francisco’s Department of Clinical Pharmacy, and associate director for the UCSF Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics Postdoctoral Training Program. The long-term research goal of Dr. Oni-Orisan’s lab is to improve pharmacological regimens for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease in ancestrally diverse populations through precision medicine. To accomplish this objective, his group combines computational approaches in pharmacogenomics and pharmacoepidemiology using electronic health record-linked biorepositories. His lab is currently funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to investigate genetic and social determinants of pharmacological health outcomes in diverse population.
