Jorge Duconge PhD, MSc, BSc Pharm Affiliation: University of Puerto Rico Pharmaceutical Sciences "Cardiovascular and Related Diseases" Title: Professor Rank: Professor Address: UPR-Medical Sciences Campus School of Pharmacy PO Box 365067 Pharmacy Bldg., 3rd floor, Rm 325-14 San Juan, PR 00936-5067 Contact: Email: [email protected] Telephone: (787) 758-2525 ext. 5312 Narrative Dr. Jorge Duconge is a Professor of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacogenomics in the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the School of Pharmacy, University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus. Dr. Duconge obtained a Baccalaureate in Pharmacy, BSc Pharm (1995, Gold Medal Honors List); Master’s degree in Experimental Pharmacology (1997); and a PhD degree (1999) from the School of Pharmacy, University of Havana. He also completed an advanced Residential Program in pharmacokinetics at Cambridge University, UK in 1998; population pharmacokinetics at State University of New York at Buffalo in 2006, and pharmacometrics (University of Auckland in New Zealand, 2003). He has also spent a mini-sabbatical at Hartford Hospital and the Genomas Laboratory of Personalized Health, CT in 2007, receiving hands-on training on DNA-typing. In addition, he completed the Genetic Analysis for Admixture and Epidemiology Studies in Latin American Populations (University of California at San Francisco (UCSF), USA) in 2010 and a hands-on workshop in next generation sequencing at the University of Pittsburgh/ Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center in 2013. His research areas include pharmacogenomics, pharmacokinetics, pharmacometrics and kinetics of drug action. From 1999 to 2004, Dr. Duconge headed the Pharmacokinetic Lab, Center for Biological Evaluation and Research in Havana, performing over 34 research projects and receiving 4 research grants. Since 2005 to date, he has completed various pharmacogenetic studies to determine prevalence of multiple pharmacogenes in the Puerto Rican population and their clinical association to medical outcomes. He also developed a novel PGt-guided algorithm to predict optimal warfarin doses in Puerto Ricans and measures of admixture pattern in this minority population. Moreover, a pharmacokinetic study of intermittent intravenous vitamin C infusions at high doses in prostate cancer patients was conducted. Currently, he is working on the physiogenomic analysis of the Caribbean Hispanics in order to infer their population structure and admixture pattern by using physiogenomic and ancestry markers, and also conducting pharmacogenetic association studies and implementing a DNA-guided algorithm for optimal warfarin management and dosing in Caribbean Hispanics. He is the author of more than 50 scientific publications including reviews, book chapters and research articles in peer-reviewed journals.
