Research Support Ongoing Research Support
CPL Associates LLC is a Contract Research organization currently working on Drug development Clinical Trials in Sepsis, Pneumonia, and Diabetes. All clinical trials involve close collaboration with Physicians, and
the CPL team includes Specialists in PK/PD and other disciplines of Pharmacometrics. These skills are applied to Clinical trials as well as Data analysis and modeling. Role: PI or Co-Investigator on all Grants Center for Protein Therapeutics, University at Buffalo. Two active grants (2009-2010) supporting the development of Sensors for use in PK studies in Animal models and sensors for real-time assay of Glucose, Insulin and GLP-1. Role: PI Center for Advanced Technology Program, University at Buffalo. Two active Grants provide matching funds for sensor development and application to Diabetes treatment and drug development. Matching funds are provided by NY State and by Private Companies.
