	Kenneth Bastow, PhD Research Focus Discovery and pre-clinical development of anti-herpes and anti-tumor agents as investigational tools and as potential drug candidates.
	Susan Blalock, PhD Research Focus Evaluation of community-pharmacy based programs focused on illness prevention and disease management
	Moo Cho, PhD Lab of Pharmaceutical Chemistry Research Focus Adopting chemical approaches to solve biopharmaceutical problems involved in drug delivery, particularly cellular delivery of nucleic acids.
	Drug Disposition Laboratory Research Focus Elucidating the mechanisms that determine the kinetics of drug disposition and action. The lab's current focus is primarily on drug transport phenomena, especially as they relate to drug distribution, elimination and pharmacologic response, how these processes may be affected by disease states, age, patient variables, and pharmacologic/toxicologic interactions.
	Joel Farley, PhD Research Focus Evaluation of the public policies used to manage prescription medications, with a particular interest in the effect of Medicaid prescription cost-containment policies on vulnerable populations.
	Richard Hansen, PhD Research Focus Health outcomes as a function of clinical intervention, with a special interest in understanding real-world parameters (e.g., access, adherence, cost, patient preferences, and promotion) that influence treatment decisions and subsequent health outcomes.
	Leaf Huang, PhD Laboratory of Drug Targeting Research Focus Using liposomes and immunoliposomes for drug delivery. Current activities are focused in the development of non-viral vectors for gene (including oligonucleotides) therapy, and receptor mediated drug and vaccine targeting using self-assembled nanoparticles.
	Harold Kohn, PhD Research Focus the delineation of the mechanism of action of clinically approved and emerging drug candidates and in the broad disciplines of drug discovery and target identification and validation.
	Andrew Lee, PhD Research Focus Using NMR spectroscopy to study the relationship between protein structure and dynamics and how these respond to perturbations such as binding (natural ligands or drugs) and mutation (evolution)
	Kuo-Hsiung Lee, PhD Natural Products Research Laboratories Research Focus Medicinal chemistry, bioactive natural products, new drug discovery and development, and Chinese medicine.
	Rihe Liu, PhD The Functional Proteomics Laboratory at School of Pharmacy and Carolina Center for Genome Sciences Research Focus Using in vitro protein selection strategies to address biological problems on a proteome-wide scale.The major tool used in the lab is a novel technique called mRNA display, in which a protein is covalently linked to the 3' end of its own mRNA.
	Matthew Maciejewski, PhD Research Focus Health economics, program evaluation, outcomes research, and research methods.
	MIchael D. (Mick) Murray, PharmD, MPH Research Focus Developing pharmacy services to improve drug therapy in older adults with chronic disorders, health care utilization of low-income minority people, and pharmacoepidemiology using large population computer databases.
	Jaya Rao, MD, MHS Research Focus Patient-provider communication and methods for enhancing communication between patients and their health care providers.
	Mary Roth McClurg, PharmD, MHS Research Focus Evaluating the quality of medication use in older adults who reside in the community setting and developing innovative strategies and programs to improve the quality of medication use in this population.
	Betsy Sleath, PhD Research Focus Physician-patient communication about medications and mental health issues, ethnic/racial differences in medication use, and health behavior and medication adherence.
	Scott Singleton, PhD Singleton Research Group Research Focus Understanding the molecular basis for the development and transmission of microbial drug resistance and the discovery and exploitation of new strategies for controlling drug-resistant microorganisms
	Dhiren Thakker, PhD Research Focus intestinal absorption and disposition of drugs, with emphasis on transport mechanisms, both paracellular and transcellular, and interactions between drug transport and metabolism.
	Tim Wiltshire, PhD Research Focus Linking genes and disease through the use of haplotype-associated mapping. Our major focus is on anxiety and depression and the drugs used to treat them.
