Faculty from the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy were very active at the recent annual meeting of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy in Boston July 17 to 20.
Five members of the faculty were installed to elected positions in sections and special interest groups: Lisa Dinkins, PharmD, secretary of the Laboratory Instructors SIG; Tim Ives, PharmD, MPH, chair-elect of the Pharmacy Practice Section; Kelly Scolaro, secretary of the Self-Care Therapuetics/Nonprescription Medicine SIG; Betsy Sleath, PhD, chair of the Social and Administrative Sciences Section; and K. T. Vaughan, MSLS, chair-elect of the Libraries/Educational Resources Section. A great many of our faculty were in attendance, and more importantly, a significant number of them conducted presentations and presented posters.
The School’s entry in the “Is Pharmacy for You?” video competition, which was produced by Carla White Harris, tied for first place.
