About

After obtaining her Bachelor of Science in pharmacy at the University of Toronto, Angela Kashuba, Pharm.D., completed a general practice residency at Women’s College Hospital and practiced as a critical care pharmacist at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, Ontario. Kashuba received her Pharm.D. from the State University of New York at Buffalo and completed postdoctoral pharmacology training at the Clinical Pharmacology Research Center at Bassett Healthcare in Cooperstown, New York. Kashuba joined the UNC-Chapel Hill faculty in 1997.

She was named the John and Deborah McNeill, Jr. Distinguished Professor in 2013 and appointed chair of the Division of Pharmacotherapy and Experimental Therapeutics in 2015. She serves as director of the UNC CFAR Clinical Pharmacology and Analytical Chemistry (CPAC) Core, director of the Analytical Chemistry Laboratory for the Verne S. Caviness General Clinical Research Center, and Dean of the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy. She is active in the clinical community as a diplomat of the American Board of Clinical Pharmacology and as a member of the PHASES Working Group.

Kashuba’s research interests surround the clinical pharmacology of antiretroviral agents used in the treatment and prevention of HIV infection. Current projects focus on characterizing mechanisms of antiretroviral distribution in tissue reservoirs of HIV, developing mass spectrometry imaging methods for quantifying adherence, and advancing interventions for real-time adherence monitoring (ENLIGHTEN clinical study).
