The faculty in the Department of Clinical Pharmacy engages in a
broad array of research endeavors that often involves our pharmacy
students.
Our research activities range from studies on clinical models of
practices, to those on practice management, patient outcomes of
pharmaceutical care, drug information, pharmacoeconomic studies on
cost of health care delivery, medication safety, and health
policy.
Just a few examples of recent research publications by some of our
clinical pharmacy faculty in collaboration with their faculty
colleagues include:
