Dr. Jacobson is a Professor and Associate Department Head in the Department of Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology in the College of Pharmacy, University of Minnesota. She received her PharmD from the University of Nebraska and completed her residency training at the University of Michigan. She was a faculty at the University of Michigan, College of Pharmacy prior to joining the University of Minnesota in 1998.
Jacobson is a clinical pharmacologist whose research focuses on the clinical pharmacology of immune suppressants and anticancer agents. Specifically, she studies how genetic variation influences drug pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, efficacy and toxicity.
