ClinPharmPod is our channel from Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics. Join us as we delve into the advances in the nature, action, efficacy, and evaluation of therapeutics in this cross-disciplinary field of experimental and clinical medicine featuring highlighted content from the one of the top journals in clinical pharmacology and therapeutics.
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.

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.

For this episode of ClinPharmPod, host Alaina Webster sits down with Dr. Don Willis, Assistant Professor at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, and moderator Dr. Erica Woodahl, Professor at the University of Montana and Associate Editor for Clinical and Translational Science (CTS). They discuss Don and his colleagues’ recent publication in CTS, “COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy: Race/ethnicity, trust, and fear,” digging into how location, race, past racism, and current systemic racism factor into the willingness to receive a COVID-19 vaccination.
