Abstract
Dr. John Oates of Vanderbilt University was central in launching the field of clinical pharmacology and gave life to the concepts of first-pass drug metabolism and interindividual variation in the way humans process drugs. Oates (Figure (Figure1)1) also made seminal discoveries on the metabolism, biosynthesis, and pharmacology of eicosanoids. The full interview, with many more stories about testifying before Congress and his love of sailing, can be seen on the JCI website, http://www.jci.org/kiosk/cgm.
