Jane and Dan caught up with Professor Jason Roberts, NHMRC Practitioner Fellow at The University of Queensland and Consultant Clinical Pharmacist at the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.

We could have talked to Jason all day. In part one of our two-part discussion on pharmacokinetic modelling of antimicrobials we talk about:
- Jason's pathway to a research career and the projects that his team are currently working on
- The patients and pathogens that benefit from individualised dosing of antimicrobials
- The narrowing therapeutic indices of some antimicrobials
- Some under-recognised adverse effects of beta-lactam antibiotics
- how to apply pharmacokinetics and individualised dosing in everyday practice
