Dr. Adam Todd is as an academic pharmacist (registrant of the General Pharmaceutical Council and a Fellow of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society) and has experience of working in clinical practice for the last 15 years – across both primary care and hospital-based settings. To complement Adam’s clinical experience of pharmacy, he also holds a PhD in medicinal chemistry and is therefore able to integrate aspects of fundamental science with pharmacy practice – a unique selling point of our proposed book. Adam is an experienced educator, and currently holds an academic position at the Newcastle University where he is a Reader in Pharmaceutical Public Health and is helping to establish a new innovative pharmacy program. Adam has published more than 80 peer reviewed research papers, two textbooks, and one international patent.
