SVP, Client & Regulatory Strategy
Simcyp - Certara
Dr Karen Rowland Yeo is Senior Vice-President, Client & Regulatory Strategy at Certara UK Limited’s Simcyp Division. Prior to this, she was the Head of PBPK Consultancy Services at Simcyp (2015-2019) where she led a team of scientists engaged in Consultancy projects relating to the application of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling in the drug development process. This involved putting a framework in place for developing models used for both internal decision-making and regulatory submissions. Her work ranged across most therapeutic areas and included the development of models used for dosing of special populations, including organ impairment and paediatrics. She has worked directly with global regulators to gain acceptance of PBPK models, increasingly raising the bar in innovation and quality. After joining Simcyp in 2002, Karen worked closely with a team of scientists and developers on various projects relating to the extrapolation of in vitro data to predict in vivo pharmacokinetics in humans. She received her BSc Honours degree in Physics at the University of Natal in South Africa in 1989 and her PhD in Drug Metabolism from the University of Sheffield in 1995. This was followed by a two-year position as a Postdoctoral Leukaemia Research Fund Fellow in the area of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastoid Leukaemia. Prior to joining Simcyp in 2002, Karen held a 5-year lectureship in the Department of Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics at the University of Sheffield. Karen has been the author/co-author of more than 100 peer reviewed articles, and is frequently called as an invited speaker and session organiser/moderator at international meetings in the field.
