Professor Urs Alber Meyer, MD, Switzerland

Urs A. Meyer went through a remarkable career as physician and scientist whose discoveries and scientific results have fundamentally contributed to clinical pharmacology and its development in the last decades.

His research has focused on “pharmacological individuality” or person-to-person variation of drug response throughout his career, from studying the drug sensitivity of the pharmacogenetic disease porphyria to the pharmacogenomics of drug disposition and its coregulationby drug interactions and environmental factors. These predictable variations in drug response are important components of individualized drug therapy or personalized and stratified medicine. Urs Meyer probably is best known for the discovery of the molecular mechanisms of several common genetic polymorphisms of drug disposition.

Dear Professor Maxwell,

The Swiss Society of Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology is happy to propose Urs Albert Meyer M.D. as nominee for the EACPT Lifetime Achievement Award in Clinical Pharmacology2017.

Urs A. Meyer went through a remarkable career as physician and scientist whose discoveries and scientific results have fundamentally contributed to clinical pharmacology and its development in the last decades. Urs Meyer’s research has focused on “pharmacological individuality” or person-to-person variation of drug response throughout his career, from studying the drug sensitivity of the pharmacogenetic disease porphyria to the pharmacogenomics of drug disposition and its coregulationby drug interactions and environmental factors. These predictable variations in drug response are important components of individualized drug therapy or personalized and stratified medicine. Urs Meyer probably is best known for the discovery of the molecular mechanisms of several common genetic polymorphisms of drug disposition.

Urs Meyer’s work has resulted in >340 publications and a H-index of 85. His scientific achievements have been recognized by numerous awards and honors including the Rawls-Palmer Award for Progress in Medicine by the American Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics and the RT Williams Distinguished Scientific Achievement Award of the International Society for the Study of Xenobiotics – among many others. He has trained 71 graduate students and 62 postdoctoral fellows and many of his previous collaborators are now in academic positions all over the world.

The Executive Committee of the Swiss Society of Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology would therefore highly recommend Urs. A. Meyer for this award.

With best regards,
Dr. H. Kupferschmidt, M.D., President SSCPT
