Rate My Professor Gianna Salis

Dr Salis's research specializations and academic interests focus on the use of oral paracetamol in the treatment of fever in children. This includes describing the population pharmacokinetic profile of oral paracetamol, the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationship in fever, and the effects of illness on paracetamol metabolism in children. In 2017, she received the Freemasons New Zealand Fellowship in Paediatrics and Child Health for research into paracetamol pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in a population of children with fever. In 2019, she was awarded the Emily Johnston Scholarships for Research in Science and Art of Clinical Medicine and recognized as an Emerging Health Researcher in the University of Otago Health Research Excellence Awards. A key publication is Salis, G., Medlicott, N., & Reith, D. (2019). Modelling of delivery kinetics of gentamicin administered through umbilical long lines. Proceedings of the 20th Annual Population Approach Group in Australia and New Zealand Meeting (PAGANZ), pp. 18-19. She presented at the PAGANZ 2019 meeting.
