Dr. Michelle Rudek received her BS in Pharmacy from the University of Pittsburgh and her dual Pharm.D., Ph.D. from Virginia Commonwealth University in a joint clinical pharmacology/oncology program with the National Cancer Institute.  Dr. Rudek joined Johns Hopkins University in 2001 and is currently an Associate Professor of Oncology and Director of the Analytical Pharmacology Core Laboratory.  Her research program is focused on clinical pharmacology with a focus on early phase drug development and special populations including AIDS malignancy and organ dysfunction.Dr. Cindy H. Chau received her BS in Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology from UCLA and her Pharm.D. and Ph.D. (in Molecular Pharmacology and Toxicology) dual degrees from the University of Southern California School of Pharmacy as a National Institutes of Health (NIH) predoctoral fellow.  She was the recipient of the NIH National Research Service Award.  Dr. Chau completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the NIH, joining the National Cancer Institute in 2004 and is currently a research scientist within the Medical Oncology Branch, Center for Cancer Research.Dr. William Douglas Figg received his B.S. (Hon) from Georgetown College, his B.S. in Pharmacy from Samford University and his Pharm.D. from Auburn University.  He completed his clinical pharmacy internship at the University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital and his fellowship in drug development at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill.  Dr. Figg also received an M.B.A. degree from a combined program at Columbia University and London Business School.  He joined the Medical Oncology Branch, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health in 1992. He has patented more than 80 new anticancer agents and four pharmacogenetic tests.Dr. Howard McLeod is Fred Eshelman Distinguished Professor and Director, UNC Institute for Pharmacogenomics and Individualized Therapy, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.  Dr. McLeod holds appointments in the UNC Schools of Pharmacy and Medicine, the Carolina Center for Genome Sciences, and the Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center.  Dr McLeod is chair of the NHGRI eMERGE network external scientific panel and is a member of the FDA committee on Clinical Pharmacology.  He is a member of the NIH NHGRI Advisory Council.  Since 2002, Dr. McLeod has been vice chair for Pharmacogenomics for the NCI clinical trials cooperative group CALGB/ALLIANCE, overseeing the largest oncology pharmacogenomics portfolio in the world.
