Fingerprinting of psychoactive drugs in zebrafish anxiety-like behaviors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 A major hindrance for the development of psychiatric drugs is the prediction of how treatments can alter complex behaviors in assays which have good throughput and physiological complexity. Here we report the development of a medium-throughput screen for

Modelling the behaviour of physiological processes: On the lack of a scientific basis in medical science [PDF]
Communicative & Integrative BiologyPhysiological regulation is extremely complex and cannot be described by homeostasis, the mathematical model generally used in medical science. Homeostasis is based on assumptions which have never been tested or substantiated and when simulated appears ...

The impact of exposure to addictive drugs on future generations: Physiological and behavioral effects [PDF]
Neuropharmacology, 2014 It is clear that both genetic and environmental factors contribute to drug addiction. Recent evidence indicating trans-generational influences of drug abuse highlight potential epigenetic factors as well. Specifically, mounting evidence suggests that parental ingestion of abused drugs influence the physiology and behavior of future generations even in ...

Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Models Are Effective Support for Pediatric Drug Development [PDF]
AAPS PharmSciTech, 2021 Pediatric drug development faces many difficulties. Traditionally, pediatric drug doses are simply calculated linearly based on the body weight, age, and body surface area of adults. Due to the ontogeny of children, this simple linear scaling may lead to drug overdose in pediatric patients.
