Hincapie Named Pharmacy Association Faculty Scholar
The James L. Winkle College of Pharmacy is pleased to announce that Anna Hincapie, PhD, has been named to the National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS) Foundations 2018-2019 Faculty Scholars Class.
Hincapie, an assistant professor, is among six faculty members from pharmacy schools and colleges nationwide selected as members of this years class to complete the educational program designed in collaboration with the University of Pittsburgh. The program fosters vital pharmacy-based patient care research among faculty at U.S. schools and colleges of pharmacy. The 18-month program will use a variety of teaching methods including web-based lecture content, online discussion forums, conference call discussions, individual mentoring and live meetings.
In its sixth year, the NACDS Foundation Faculty Scholars program is designed to engage emerging research faculty at U.S. schools and colleges of pharmacy in meaningful community pharmacy-based patient care research. Each faculty scholar will receive a research grant to launch a patient-focused research project conducted in a community pharmacy setting, and will have the opportunity to be mentored by experienced researchers and connect with thought leaders in pharmacy care.
"We are thrilled to have this talented, eminently qualified group of professors as the 2018-2019 NACDS Foundation Faculty Scholars, said NACDS Foundation President Kathleen Jaeger. "We look forward to the significant contributions we are sure they will make in advancing patient care, while also enhancing their research skills to further the overall goal of improving public health.
To date, 21 scholars have participated in the program, representing 18 schools of pharmacy nationwide. Each of the prior scholars has developed an initial research project and presented their findings at several American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy annual meetings.
The National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS) Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization that pursues evidence-based research, and related medication management and educational initiatives, that benefit patients, improve outcomes and advance public health.
