Hosted by the ASPET Division for Drug Metabolism and Disposition (DMDD)
Wednesday, March 23, 2022, 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm ET
The DMDD Quarterly Webinar Series is intended to stimulate idea exchange and communication among DMDD members and to promote the career development of young scientists in the field of drug metabolism and disposition. Join us for this session where our
featured junior scientists will discuss recent advancements in the pharmacology of equilibrative nucleoside transporters 1 and 2 and the assessment of metabolic biomarkers to assess drug response in cancer treatment.
