It was a short week at MPhA after spending a long weekend in Seattle, WA for the annual APhA meeting. The meeting was good and Minnesota was well-represented, with 80 students from the College of Pharmacy and numerous pharmacists from across the state in attendance. I’d to share with you some of the Minnesota-specific details from the meeting:
- MPhA’s very own, Julie Johnson received the Gloria Niemeyer Francke Leadership Mentor Award.
- Steve Simenson, the president of Goodrich Pharmacies, is running for APhA President Elect. He was also awarded the APPM Distinguished Achievement Award in Community and Ambulatory Practice.
- Todd Sorensen, faculty member at the University of MN College of Pharmacy, was awarded the APPM Distinguished Achievement Award in Administrative Practice and was selected as an APhA Fellow by APhA-APPM.
- Michelle Johnson of Goodrich Pharmacy received the Immunization Champion Award for her role in improving vaccination rates in her community.
- Jagannath Muzumdar, graduate student in the University of MN SAPh, program received the Postgraduate Best Paper Award in the Economic, Social & Administrative Sciences.
