Hansen, Roth Co-Investigators on Grant

May 14, 2007

Two professors from the UNC School of Pharmacy's Division of Pharmaceutical Outcomes and Policy are co-investigators on a one-year, $140,000 grant from the School of Medicine’s “Investments for the Future” Project.

Richard Hansen, PhD, and Mary Roth, PharmD, MHS, will be part of a project that aims to enlist pharmacist intervention to reduce drug therapy problems, such as incorrect usage, in older psychiatric patients. The focus of the project will be to establish a pharmacist-run clinic in psychiatry. The project leader is Lea C. Watson, MD, MPH, an assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry.

The funding is for pilot work to collect preliminary data for a grant submission to the National Institutes of Health.
