The University of Maryland School of Pharmacy’s chapter of the American Pharmacists Association- Academy of Student Pharmacists (APhA-ASP) achieved remarkable success at the APhA annual meeting in Nashville, Tenn. in March.

This year, 33 UMSOP student pharmacists attended the national conference — the largest delegation in recent history. Demonstrating excellence in leadership, innovation, and community outreach, UMSOP’s chapter secured multiple awards at both national and regional levels.

National awards included the National OTC Medicine Safety Award (1st place), National Operation Diabetes 2nd Runner Up (3rd place), National Division AA Winning Chapter (1st place), and the National Innovative Programming Award (1st place). Additionally, the team’s impact was felt at the regional level, winning the Region 2 Operation Immunization Award and the Region 2 Operation Substance Use Disorder Award.
