  • My research interest revolves around precision medicine, particularly looking at pharmacogenomics and epigenetics' influence on drug therapy. In addition, I am also involved in clinical pharmacy-based studies. During my Ph.D., I am involved in research that used methylation array and pyrosequencing to identify and measure the methylation levels of genes that are involved in cisplatin resistance among pediatric germ cell tumor patients. Among the works that I had and am currently involved in include:

    1. CYP2C19 polymorphisms and their association with clopidogrel response
    2. HLA gene polymorphism and their association with antiepileptic-induced cutaneous adverse drug reaction
    3. Gene polymorphism association with carbamazepine response
    4. Gene polymorphism association with gastrointestinal side effects of metformin
    5. Animal studies looking into gene methylation and depression.
    6. Pharmacist education program in oral chemotherapy monitoring
    7. Acceptance towards pharmacists as an immunizer
    8. Statin effect on glucose control and cognitive dysfunction
