December 2019 Featured Investigator

Martin A Kennedy, PhD

Professor
University of Otago, Christchurch
Dr Kennedy trained in molecular genetics, and his career focus has been the application of these tools to the understanding and treatment of disease. His work has explored the impact of genetic variability on drug responses, including use of next generation and genome sequencing methods, and gene expression analysis of drug effects in animal and cellular models. Much of his work has centred on antidepressant pharmacogenetics and the genetics of mental disorders, although he has wider interests in adverse drug reaction research...
The mission of the Pharmacogenomics Research Network (PGRN) is to catalyze and lead research in precision medicine for the discovery and translation of genomic variation influencing therapeutic and adverse drug effects.​​
​
All individuals interested in pharmacogenomics research may apply.
