Faculty
Dr. Stacy Brown joined the inaugural faculty of the Gatton College of Pharmacy in 2007. Prior to that, she taught undergraduate chemistry at The Citadel in Charleston, SC and served as adjunct graduate faculty at College of Charleston. Dr. Brown completed her B.S. degree in chemistry at The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga prior to entering the Ph.D. program at The University of Georgia. At UGA, she worked in the field of bioanalytical chemistry under the supervision of Dr. Michael Bartlett. Dr. Brown continues to work in the field of analytical chemistry, specializing in liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method development and validation. She collaborates on projects that involve drug stability, pharmacokinetics, drug metabolism, and biomarker quantification. Dr. Brown mentors both pharmacy students and undergraduates in her lab. Dr. Brown also has research interests in the scholarship of teaching, where she has studied the effectiveness of guided inquiry teaching and case-based teaching in the pharmacy curriculum. She has been recognized by her students for excellence and teaching, and has been recognized by the College of Pharmacy for excellence in teaching, research, and service.
