Calling All Transporter Papers!
Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics (CPT) has launched a Call for Papers for its September 2022 themed issue on Transporters. Join host Alaina Webster as she welcomes CPT’s Deputy Managing Editor Dr. Kathy Giacomini and Editor-in-Training Dr. Max Smith to discuss types of submissions they’d most like to see as well as why submitting to a themed issue could be a great visibility booster for your paper!
Peer Review: What’s Not Helpful in a Review?
ClinPharmPod’s peer review series continues as host Alaina Webster is chats with Dr. Richard Peck about what to avoid when completing a review. They cover what’s too little and what’s too much in a review, the appropriate tone to strike when providing feedback, and the tricky topic that is unconscious bias.

Pharmacogenetics and Underrepresented Populations
Dr. Erica Woodahl is back as moderator to discuss “Applying an equity lens to pharmacogenetic research and translation to underrepresented populations” with Clinical and Translational Science authors Drs. Tiana Luczak and Jacob Brown. They break down the challenges to conducting pharmacogenetic studies in underrepresented populations, what steps researchers can take to overcome these obstacles, and why equitable studies for underrepresented groups is vital to the future of clinical pharmacology and translational science.
