Freya Bachmann is a PhD student in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Konstanz, Germany. In collaboration with University Children’s Hospital Basel (UKBB), she applies techniques from optimal control theory and numerical optimization to pharmacometric models in order to compute optimal individualized dosing regimens. In 2019, she received the American Conference on Pharmacometrics Trainee Award for outstanding research and gave an oral presentation of her work entitled “Computing the Optimal Individual Dosing Regimen with Constraints on Model States to Include Side Effects” at the main conference in Florida.
