A doctor of pharmacy student, two faculty members, and an alumna from the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy have received travel scholarships from the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy.

The recipients are: third-year student Kathryn Givens Merkel and her faculty mentor, clinical instructor Lisa Dinkins, PharmD; and alumna Megan Wheatley, PharmD, who is a resident at Moses Cone Health System in Greensboro, and her faculty mentor, clinical assistant professor Dawn Pettus, PharmD.

The AACP/Walmart Scholars Program strives to strengthen the scholarship recipients’ skills and commitment to a career in academic pharmacy through participation in programming and activities at the 2009 Annual Meeting. Each student-faculty pair receives $1,000 to help cover their registration and traveling and lodging expenses for the AACP Annual Meeting and the AACP Teachers Seminar in Boston on July 18-22.
