Research and Scholarly Activity

PGY1 pharmacy residents are required to complete a formal, year-long longitudinal research project. Our PGY1 residents are the primary investigators for their research project but are assigned a project preceptor to provide guidance throughout the process. Research projects are presented at local and national conferences throughout the residency year.
