Two doctor of pharmacy students and a community pharmacy resident at the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy, along with their faculty mentors, have been named AACP/Walmart Scholars, marking the fifth straight year that at least one student-faculty tandem from the School has received the honor.
This year’s winning student-faculty pairs are PY3 student Liz Alford and clinical assistant professor Lisa Dinkins, PharmD; PY3 student Megan E. Hartranft and clinical assistant professor Kelly Scolaro, PharmD; and PGY2 academic/community pharmacy resident Shanna K. O’Connor and clinical associate professor Stefanie Ferreri, PharmD.
The Walmart Scholarships, which began in 2005, aim to strengthen the recipients’ skills and commitment to careers in academic pharmacy through their participation at the AACP Annual Meeting and Seminars. Each student-faculty pair will receive $1,000 to help cover registration and travel expenses for the AACP Annual Meeting and Seminars on July 9-13 in San Antonio, Texas.
