Core Concepts for Didactic Education in Pharmacy Administration & Leadership

Core concepts within disciplines of science have allowed educators to teach the most foundational and critical knowledge efficiently, and students to obtain essential skills and knowledge required for a given discipline. Recent decades have seen many science disciplines applying and confirming the benefits of core concepts. However, there is limited research on the core concepts of healthcare administration and leadership, especially within pharmacy. Consequently, the lack of consensus on core concepts prevents consistency among training programs teaching pharmacy administration and leadership (PAL). Given the increasing value of didactic training for PAL and attributes within training programs such as MS degrees for pharmacy, a set of core concepts must be well defined to assist with didactic PAL training. In the world of rapidly evolving medical services, technologies, and policies, strong PAL skills can lead to advanced global health and the alleviation of some of the world's most pressing healthcare challenges

A pilot study assessing p16 levels in patients with sickle cell disease at UNC

The primary purpose of this research study is to learn about how the level of a protein called p16 changes in the blood of children, adolescents, and adults with sickle cell disease. This protein can provide information about cellular aging which has not been studied before in patients with sickle cell disease. This can help develop future areas of research into sickle cell disease.

A Pilot Study of a Food is Medicine Intervention to Improve Pregnancy

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a Food is Medicine intervention when started during the first trimester of pregnancy. The eating pattern we are testing in this study is a Mediterranean-style dietary pattern adapted for the southern United States - thus, we call the program "Med-South." All who take part will receive Med-South dietary counseling. In addition, to help participants follow a Med-style dietary pattern, one group of study participants will receive extra virgin olive oil and nuts. The other group will receive extra virgin olive oil, nuts, and frozen meals (medically tailored meals) that align with the Med-South dietary pattern. Participants will be assigned at random (like flipping a coin) to one of these groups.
