Research summary
AI-generated

Sara K. Quinney studies how drugs behave in the body (pharmacokinetics) with a particular focus on medication use during pregnancy, lactation, and in newborns and children. Her work uses computer-based models to predict drug metabolism and dosing, and addresses how factors like body weight, genetics, and pregnancy-related conditions affect how medicines work. She also contributes to biospecimen banking and data-curation tools for clinical research.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
