Research interests

Slade's lab is the Pharmacoinformatics Laboratory. The PharmacoInformatics Laboratory uses computer technologies to uncover new relationships in biomedical data. PharmacoInformatics incorporates the principles of computerised data management, machine learning techniques and complexity analysis in a pharmacology context. These techniques as well as applied statistics are used on a range of problems in this lab including clinical observational studies and studies based on analysis of laboratory data.

Teaching and supervision

Slade is the coordinator of the 3rd year course, Toxicology, and his teaching is focussed in the areas of non-clinical regulatory toxicology, pharmacokinetics, toxinology, target organ directed toxicology and data analysis for detection of toxicity.

Current projects

Prediction of toxicity is an important part of assessment of drugs during development. The cost associated with detection of drug toxicity late in drug development is enormous so it has become important to developin silico models to detect toxic effects early. In silico toxicology frequently uses techniques similar to QSAR but can use combinations of a greater number of parameters for making toxicity predictions. Some in silico techniques use a theoretical basis and are not statistical in nature. Our projects aim to generate models of toxic effects using physicochemical data, experimental results gleaned from literature, genomic information and fundamental models of toxicological molecular initiating events.
