Fakhreddin Jamali (born May 31, 1945) is an Iranian-Canadian professor emeritus of pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences at the University of Alberta. He is the founding president of the Canadian Society for Pharmaceutical Sciences, [2] and the editor-in-chief of Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences. [3]
Fakhreddin was born May 31, 1945, in Arak, Iran to Jamaleddin Jamali and Batoul Rouhani-Jamali. [4] [5]
Jamali's focus has been on drugs action ( pharmacodynamics) and disposition ( pharmacokinetics) particularly in field of analgesics and antiinfammatory therapy. His earlier work on the stereoselective and stereospecific therapeutic and toxicity of drugs received high peer recognition. [6] He also reported that pain and/or its trauma delays absorption of drugs which may render them ineffective. [7] This is particularly important when a quick action is desired such as pain relief. His group found that inflammatory conditions such as arthritis diminish response to some cardiovascular drugs despite already known increased circulatory concentrations. [8] His group also has reported the mechanism behind the adverse cardiovascular effects of both anti-inflammatory drugs and inflammatory conditions. [9] [10] Jamali has received many national and international awards for his contribution to science and public wellbeing. [11]
