Dr. Susan Hall is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Pharmacy and Medical Sciences at Griffith University, a position she has held since April 2016. She is a registered pharmacist with academic qualifications including a Bachelor of Pharmaceutical Science (BPharmaceutSc), Master of Pharmacy with Honours (MPharm(Hons)), Graduate Certificate in Health Professional Education (GCertHealthProfessionalEdu), and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) from Griffith University, awarded in 2016. Before entering academia full-time, she worked as a Pharmacist at HPS Pharmacies.
Susan Hall's research focuses on pharmacology and pharmaceutical analysis. Her work explores the bioactivity of coffee and caffeine on inflammatory responses linked to depression, neuroprotective effects of compounds such as ferulic acid and metformin in models of Parkinson's disease and depressive-like behavior, drug-induced toxicity including vancomycin in human knee chondrocytes, antimicrobial resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa using time series analysis of antibiotic usage, and innovations in pharmacy education such as the use of chatbots as simulated patients. Key publications include 'Cellular Effects of Pyocyanin, a Secreted Virulence Factor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa' (Toxins, 2016), 'Remedial effects of caffeine against depressive-like behaviour in mice model of Parkinson's disease' (Nutritional Neuroscience, 2022), 'Involvement of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the neuroprotective mechanisms of ferulic acid against depressive-like behaviour' (2023), 'Risk of Pseudomonas aeruginosa antimicrobial resistance using time series analysis of antibiotic usage' (Journal of Pharmacy Practice and Research, 2024), and 'Evaluation of the use of chatbots as simulated patients in capstone clinical pharmacy education: A pilot study' (2026). She has received a Dean's Commendation for Outstanding Contributions to Student Learning from Griffith University and her publications have accumulated over 1,300 citations.
