Ms Mary Madden has returned to where her pharmacy career began, Charles Sturt University (CSU). Among the first pharmacy graduates from CSU in 2001, Ms Madden is now working at the University as an associate lecturer in the School of Biomedical Sciences in Wagga Wagga. She worked in community and hospital pharmacy before joining CSU in 2007. “I had reached the stage in my career where I wanted to do more,” Ms Madden said. “I was looking into research before I secured a position at CSU.” Ms Madden’s research focuses on risk management in pharmacy, minimizing human error, and the decision making process when errors occur. Also new to the pharmacy program at CSU is Dr Hassan Obied, a lecturer in pharmacology and pharmacokinetics in the School of Biomedical Sciences. He graduated from Tanta University (TU) in Egypt in 2000. He worked at TU and then completed his PhD at CSU in 2007 which focussed on the discovery of new bio-phenols in Australian olives with potential anti-cancer activity and accepted a teaching position in 2008. His research interests and expertise are in the areas of plant bio-phenols and the role of antioxidants in prevention and treatment of disease.
