About

S Leoni is a clinical pharmacy researcher whose work centers on the safety, efficiency, and economic sustainability of automated systems for chemotherapy compounding. Her most-cited study, "Evaluation of the economic sustainability of a robotic system for chemotherapy compounding" (2018), addresses a critical challenge in oncology pharmacy: balancing the high toxicity risks of drug preparation with operational costs. By analyzing the implementation of robotic compounding systems, Leoni demonstrated how automation can reduce human exposure to hazardous drugs while maintaining cost-effectiveness—a contribution that bridges patient safety, occupational health, and healthcare economics. Though her citation count is modest, her work is highly relevant to hospital pharmacies seeking to modernize sterile compounding practices. Leoni’s research provides actionable data for institutions weighing the upfront investment of robotic systems against long-term gains in safety and error reduction. Her findings support a shift toward technology-driven solutions in clinical pharmacy, particularly for high-risk treatments like chemotherapy. For students and researchers in pharmaceutical automation or oncology pharmacy, Leoni’s work offers a practical framework for evaluating the economic and safety trade-offs of robotic compounding.
