Temple School of Pharmacy had a large presence at the 39th
ASHP Midyear Clinical Meeting in Orlando, Florida in early December.
Twenty-one students and three faculty members attended the largest program
of its kind for practicing pharmacists. Over 17,000 pharmacists and
exhibitors attended the meeting.
The School hosted a dinner/cocktail reception for alumni and current
students and over sixty people attended. Dr. Joel Shuster was the site
host. The alums had an opportunity to mingle with faculty and catch up on
events at the School and to mingle with colleagues.
Third-year students Amy Trexler and Teresa Anderson represented the School
in the Clinical Skills Competition. Teresa, Laura Gilbert, Heather
Rickards, and Gary Beppler
displayed a poster that illustrated students’ activities in the Student
Society Showcase of ASHP. Faculty member Dr. Nicole Sifontis is the
faculty advisor for the student chapter of ASHP and assisted in the
preparation of the poster. She also organized the preliminary Clinical
Skills Competition at the School.
Also, students Adam George, Dennis Constan, and Jessica Van Ingen
displayed research posters that represented their work with faculty
members Drs. Patrick McDonnell and Olga Klibanov.
The students had a great experience and developed a number of networking
contacts that will help them with their organization and future in
pharmacy practice. |
