In this episode, Julaine talks with Courtney Gamston, professor of the practice of experiential education at the Harrison School of Pharmacy at Auburn University. Julaine worked at the Harrison School as an instructional designer and faculty developer before coming to Vanderbilt, and she knew that her former colleague Courtney had some very interesting experiences teaching during the pandemic. Courtney works with pharmacy students who are just starting to enter clinical practice settings, helping them apply what they've been learning in their pharmacy courses to real patients. Given the work Courtney's students do in clinical settings, the 2020 transition to remote teaching and learning meant she and her colleagues had to rethink how they taught their courses. In the interview, Courtney shares some of the methods she used to keep pharmacy education experiential during the pandemic and mentions a few changes to the course that worked out so well they'll persist when classes return to traditional settings.

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month, and millions of Americans are diagnosed with diabetes and pre-diabetes each year. Left undiagnosed or untreated, it can increase one's risk of heart attack, kidney disease, blindness and nerve damage to the feet—not to mention the large health cost burden to you and the overall health care system.

Tyler, I want to get right to something that we talked about earlier this week and that's your passion for sharing nutritional advice. Tell us a little bit about what you do and how you spread the information. You said that you give this advice out on Snapchat, how does that work? What feedback do you get from your viewers? You mentioned you'd like to set up Facebook live as well? How can people get to see you? How do they know when your show is on? I know lulu.com allows you to create your own book and publish to Amazon, maybe you'll put together enough recipes to start a career as an author slash nutritionist. You recently graduated, what made you decide to become a clinical community pharmacist instead of a residency or a post-PharmD MBA? You mentioned some other work you do as a clinical consultant with pharmacoeconomics on your off hours, how does that work? How does that experience help you see a more global patient care effort than in maybe a single location? You also mentioned motivational interview training, could you talk about what that is and how a pharmacist would get into that? Are you eventually looking to own your own pharmacy? Tell me about the family ties you have to Auburn University and the Auburn experience. I know the National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) is having their national meeting on Oct. 15-19, 2016 in New Orleans this year, tell me about your leadership role within the student chapter especially those last two years. The Iowa Pharmacy Association is very active in keeping us up to date and connected to other pharmacy associations. You were active with the Alabama Pharmacy Association as a student, what were your roles there and how did you get into those positions? Could you present continuing education on nutrition with the state association and stream it live? I feel like this would be a CE that would reach outside the state. These next months students are looking to do APPEs and choose APPEs tell us a little bit about your “method” of choosing those experiences. You had an interesting approach to choosing clubs and leadership activities in undergrad and especially pharmacy school, tell us about that. What's the best piece of advice you would give to a person looking to get into the pharmacy profession today?

Read the full story with photos at: https://www.otsuka.co.jp/en/company/globalnews/2014/0926_01.html As part of Pharmavite’s overall strategy to educate future pharmacy graduates and their educators on the importance of dietary supplements, Pharmavite invited students and faculty from Auburn University’s Harrison School of Pharmacy to attend a seminar on dietary supplements at the company’s Opelika, Alabama facility in September. The Harrison School of Pharmacy is the largest Pharmacy School in the State of Alabama. The educational visit included an in-depth look at Pharmavite’s history as a leading manufacturer of high quality vitamins, minerals and supplements, plus an extensive tour of the company’s state of the art Opelika facility. At the seminar, the university guests learned about Pharmavite’s stringent manufacturing process, including ways the company exceeds industry standards. The guests also left with a better understanding of the United States regulatory framework for supplement manufacturing and marketing. The seminar was a tremendous success. In a post-visit survey, the students reported: “An increased understanding of how quality vitamins are manufactured,” as well as “Understanding of the additional steps that Pharmavite takes to manufacture high quality vitamins.” Participants also thanked Pharmavite for the educational opportunity indicating they were very impressed with the facility and knowledgeable staff and would recommend future events to other students. Based on the seminar’s success, Pharmavite looks forward to hosting more students on tours in the future.
