ampbell University’s pharmacy student team won the American College of Clinical Pharmacy’s (ACCP) 2011 Clinical Pharmacy Challenge this past fall. Team members Erin Dickert, Karyn Fabo and Clayton Moore entered the national competition against 83 other pharmacy schools in September. They advanced through four preliminary online rounds to receive an invitation, along with seven other schools, to the live matches at ACCP’s annual meeting in Pittsburgh, Pa. on Oct. 15-17. Each round of the competition consisted of three segments: a lightning round that quizzed students on pharmacology and pharmaceutics, a clinical case portion, and a Jeopardy-style segment with pharmacy-related categories.
Campbell’s team sailed through the quarterfinal and semifinal competitions, before claiming the championship title in the final round against the University of Tennessee. The final score was 3,200 to 1,750. “The competition was a fantastic opportunity to use what I am learning in the classroom in an academic, clinical setting, as well as fortify what I study on a daily basis,” Dickert said, who is a thirdyear pharmacy student. “The faculty thoroughly prepared us for the competition, both in academic and clinical knowledge.” Dickert, Fabo and Moore each received an individual cash prize of $500 and the honor of bringing the championship trophy home to Buies Creek.
DEAN’S MESSAGE
I
want to share with you the outstanding news of our student team winning the American College of Clinical Pharmacy’s 2011 Clinical Pharmacy Challenge this past fall. I congratulate our team members Erin Dickert, Karyn Fabo and Clayton Moore for their exceptional work. Karyn and Clayton also represented Campbell in the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists’ National Clinical Skills competition in December. They finished in the top 10 teams, yet another remarkable accomplishment. This news adds to our exciting year as we celebrate our College’s 25th anniversary. I appreciate everyone who helped us celebrate this milestone during homecoming in October, and I look forward to our Anniversary Gala on April 28. I hope each of you will be able to join us. We truly want to honor our past and the success of our pharmacy program; we also look forward to our future ahead, our next 25 years. I want to ensure that all members of our College community are aware of the tremendous opportunities and challenges we have before us. We have opportunities to advance our training as the health care industry constantly evolves. And with these changes, I know challenges will come, which I assure you, we are ready to face. Two new developments at our College are the master of science in public health and doctor of physical therapy degrees. Public health will start this August and physical therapy is projected to begin fall 2013. I believe these programs will be great additions to the College. Public health students will arrive just in time to participate in our interprofessional education pilot project this fall. Our plans include bringing together students from pharmacy, physician assistant and public health programs to work in small groups on case studies and team building projects. The goal is to teach students to work in teams to improve patient care as part of their training, in the hope that they will carry that over to their future clinical practices. To develop the pilot project we’ve established an interprofessional education committee, consisting of faculty from each respective program,

and the proposed osteopathic medicine program. The committee adopted goals and competencies derived from the Interprofessional Educational Collaborative, or IPEC, a national body focused on fostering collaborative, patient-centered care. IPEC is a coalition between the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy and other national health associations representing dentistry, medicine, nursing and public health. The partnership was developed to announce new competencies for interprofessional education and implement action strategies in institutions across the country. I am excited to see this movement toward interprofessional education and practice on a national level. IPEC is working to heighten collaboration among all providers to advance highquality, integrated health care delivery. In order for a change to take place, I believe it needs to start in the classroom, and that interprofessional education needs to become an important component of our educational strategy. This type of training provides the opportunity for other professions to see the expertise of pharmacists in areas such as immunizations, diabetic care, medication therapy management, and managing drug interactions. More importantly, it will help our students understand and appreciate the expertise that each different field has to offer, and how to best utilize the team’s strengths to complement their weaknesses in order to improve patient outcomes. It starts with us. Our students will emulate the type of training we provide as they move into their careers. Helping them discover the value of working effectively as members of clinical teams will give them an opportunity to impact the future of health care. Sincerely,
Ronald W. Maddox, PharmD Vice President for Health Programs Dean, College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences

New public health degree focuses on improving health in rural populations
C
ommitted to enhancing health care education, Campbell University is starting a new public health program this fall. The degree will focus on rural health care disparities and address the shortage of public health professionals. The Association of Schools of Public Health estimates more than 250,000 public health workers will be needed by 2020. To meet this need schools will have to train three times the current number of public health graduates over the next nine years. The University will offer the new master of science in public health degree through its College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences. The first class arriving in August is expected to fill 20 seats. The two-year degree will align with Campbell’s pursuit of providing health care in rural and underserved areas. The program will focus on training a public health workforce to reach these specific populations in Harnett County and throughout central North Carolina. “The focus is really just getting our students out in the community and into public health practice as quickly as possible,” said Tina Tseng, PhD, MSPH, who was recently named chair of the new program. During their first semester, students will be strongly encouraged to work with the local community in an effort to make Harnett County healthier. Tseng shared that heart disease is the leading cause of death in Harnett County, so a project that she will recommend to her future students is creating an awareness campaign to promote the risk factors for heart disease to local residents. The new degree will also be an asset to the University’s growing health care programs. Public health is an interdisciplinary field and professionals in many disciplines including pharmacy and medicine routinely deal with public health issues.
“Public health is an emerging field, especially in its connection to pharmacy,” Tseng said. “The concepts from public health can help expand the role of pharmacists as it already has for many other fields in health care. I think Campbell has an opportunity to be a leader in this area and really shape what pharmacists do in the future.” Public health students will participate in the College’s interprofessional education pilot program this fall with pharmacy and physician assistant students. Incorporating this field into the team-based training model will place a greater emphasis on expanding a health care workforce with expertise in public and rural health. “Campbell wants to fill a need in rural, underserved areas and public health can help define that gap because we’re able to measure the need and supply evidence of the disparities,” Tseng said. Health services research is an area of public health that examines how people get access to health care, how much care costs, and what happens to patients as a result of this care. Tseng plans to have her students conduct this type of research to analyze the need for health care in rural areas of central North Carolina. “Our students will study how many PAs are in a certain area and what we can do to bring more PAs here. Or determine what the need is, is it really physicians or another type of health care provider,” Tseng explained. Currently, public health programs at other universities within the state do not primarily focus on local disparities in central North Carolina. By partnering with health departments, community clinics and other local organizations to conduct research and execute projects, Campbell’s program will focus on improving the health of citizens in Harnett County and the surrounding areas. “I hope the program will give to the community as much as it will teach students about public health,” Tseng said.
Public health concepts in pharmacy and medicine Public health is all about prevention. Students at the College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences are already participating in public health activities including flu clinics, blood pressure screenings, medical mission trips and health fairs. The new program will provide an opportunity for pharmacy and physician assistant students to learn more about public health principles through interprofessional training and future dual degree options.

Doctor of physical therapy degree approved The College’s second doctorate program projected to begin fall 2013
A
new doctor of physical therapy degree at Campbell University has been approved with an anticipated start date of fall 2013. This expansion is part of the University’s effort to train qualified practitioners to meet anticipated shortages in the health care industry. The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) predicts patients will have direct access to physical therapists by 2020 for management, prevention and wellness services. With the increased access to patients, APTA forecasts the need to train more physical therapists. APTA also bases the growing projection for physical therapists on the demands of the aging population. “The new physical therapy degree, which has been in the planning stages for several years, is another landmark event that signifies the dramatic growth of health education at Campbell University,” said President Jerry Wallace. “This program will help meet the preventative health care needs in our community and throughout the state.”
Annual charity talent show benefits children’s hospital Pharmacy students danced, sang and acted for charity during the College's annual talent show on Feb. 29. More than $1,000 was raised during the event to benefit the North Carolina Children’s Hospital. First-year pharmacy student Eric Carter walked away with first place for his vocal and piano performance, “Tribute,” which was a melody of “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On” and “Great Balls of Fire” by Jerry Lee Lewis. Phi Delta Chi brothers took home second place for their ‘90s dance routine and third-year pharmacy student Carter Long was awarded third place for his comedy rendition of “The Return of Kung Fu Hillbilly.”

The University will offer the three-year program through its College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences and plans to enroll 24 students the first year and 32 students subsequently after. “Campbell will fill a unique niche in physical therapy education by offering the first DPT program at a Christian university in North Carolina,” said Ronald Maddox, PharmD, vice president for health programs and dean of CPHS. “Our Christian tradition will emphasize to our students the importance of providing compassionate and dedicated care to patients.” Campbell will offer the fourth DPT program in North Carolina. Additionally, two universities offer a master’s degree in physical therapy or MPT, and one offers a MPT and transitional DPT program. According to APTA, physical therapy programs will transition to offer only the DPT degree by 2020.

Scholarship luncheon connects donors with student recipients
Donor Bobby Ransdell congratulates pharmacy students Clayton Moore, Phillip Mills, Danielle Neal, Lauren Turner and Danielle Woodard for receiving the Ransdell Family Fund Scholarship.
T
he College’s annual scholarship luncheon brought together nearly 300 donors, students and family members on Sat., Feb. 18, at Campbell University. The event provided scholarship recipients the opportunity to meet, visit with and thank the generous donors who fund the College’s 71 scholarships. More than $225,000 was awarded to students through scholarships at this year’s event.
Off to a great start Laura Dail, a first-year PA student, received the first Lloyd S. Surles Physician Assistant scholarship this year. A member of the charter class, Dail is one of four PA students who are first-time recipients of newly endowed PA scholarships. “Receiving the Surles scholarship means the world to me,” Dail said. “It has helped facilitate the fulfillment of my dream and passion of serving others by decreasing the burden of student loans.” She chose to come to Campbell University because of the warmth and support of the faculty and the outstanding reputation of the University as a whole. “After the interview, I was sold!” Dail said. “The faculty and staff were willing to get to know me personally and learn about my life experiences that brought
me to the PA profession. This showed me how invested they were in the program and their level of commitment to future students.” “My true passion lies with those in rural areas who have limited access to health care,” Dail said about her postgraduation plans. She hopes to practice family medicine in an underserved area, where she wants to make an impact by providing patient-centered care.

Tony Shelton, a fourth-year pharmacy student, is the inaugural recipient of the 25th Anniversary Pharmacy Scholarship. “To me, the 25th scholarship is more than just money,” Shelton said. “It represents the culmination of 25 years of tireless effort and dedication from countless people working together with the common goal of making Campbell University a leader in health education.” The scholarship was made
possible by donations from alumni, students, parents, faculty and staff to celebrate the College’s milestone anniversary. When deciding on which pharmacy program to attend, Shelton actually had plans to go to another university until his interview at Campbell, “What I saw here was an opportunity to be more than just a student pursuing a graduate degree. Instead, here at Campbell, I felt a sense of possibility.” Shelton is currently a
commissioned officer with the United States Public Health Service, assigned to the Bureau of Federal Prisons. Following his graduation this May, he will serve as a pharmacy officer at the Canaan Federal Penitentiary in Waymart, Pa. In the future, Shelton wants to transition to an administrative role in one of USPHS’s many governmental bodies where he hopes to make decisions that will affect public health on a national scale.

Two faculty awarded grant for cutting-edge research equipment Daniel Shin, PhD, professor of pharmaceutical sciences, and Sarah Liu, PhD, assistant professor of pharmaceutical sciences, were recently awarded a $58,880 grant from the North Carolina Biotechnology Center. Funds from the grant will purchase an ultrahigh performance liquid chromatograph (UHPLC) instrument, used to identify and quantify individual components in complex material. Installing the equipment on-campus will give students access to advanced technology that is currently used in the pharmaceutical industry. “The UHPLC increases the speed and sensitivity of drug analysis which will enhance our students’ training and research opportunities,” Shin said. Both undergraduate and graduate students in the pharmaceutical sciences program will receive hands-on training with the new instrument. “We would like to thank Dr. Holmes for his assistance with the grant. We wouldn’t have been able to submit the proposal without his contribution,” Shin said. Shin and his colleagues plan to install the UHPLC instrument by the end of the semester. The instrument would then be available for classes beginning in the fall semester of 2012. The North Carolina Biotechnology Center is a private, non-profit corporation supported by the N.C. General Assembly. Its mission is to provide long-term economic and societal benefits to North Carolina by supporting biotechnology research, business, education and strategic policy statewide.

Tseng named founding chair of public health Tina Tseng, PhD, MSPH, has been named founding chair of the new Department of Public Health at Campbell University’s College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences (CPHS). Tseng has served at the College for the past two years in the Department of Clinical Research. During this time, she was an integral part of the department promoting student driven research and advising students with their research projects. “I feel honored and excited to lead the direction of this important program,” Tseng said. Tseng holds a BA in psychology from Johns Hopkins University, a MS in public health from Emory University Rollins School of Public Health and a PhD in Integrated Biomedical Sciences from Ohio State University. “Dr. Tseng is passionate about public health and the research involved in training students to make an impact in the health of rural communities,” said Ronald Maddox, PharmD, vice president for health programs and dean of CPHS. “I look forward to seeing the new program evolve under her leadership.” Tseng has a strong interest in research, “Research lets you go into uncharted territory. You aren’t just memorizing information you are reading, but actually creating new knowledge.” She is equally passionate about her students; to her, there is nothing more fulfilling than helping them understand scientific methods. Bringing a wealth of experience to the job, Tseng has worked for North Carolina State University, Research Triangle Institute and Kendle International. While earning her PhD, she received a prestigious pre-doctoral training award from the National Institutes of Health to conduct original research on the effects of HIV and methamphetamine on the brain.
Hall receives national research award Julie Hall, PhD, assistant professor of pharmaceutical sciences, recently received the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy’s New Investigator Award. The award provides $10,000 as start-up funding for new pharmacy faculty’s research programs. It also covers expenses for travel and registration to the 2013 AACP Annual Meeting where Hall will present her research findings. Hall’s proposal investigates how specific chemicals interact with the body and contribute to the development of obesity. This year, AACP received nearly 150 submissions for the award. On average, 12 to 18 grants are awarded annually in eight different academic areas. Hall received the award for the biological sciences category, in which 43 applications were received. Hall joined the College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences in the fall of 2009. She currently teaches anatomy and physiology courses for both the pharmacy and physician assistant programs.

Shelton takes on role of president to advance her profession Shelton no longer practices in a clinical setting, but continues to find ways to foster the pharmacist’s role in geriatrics. Pictured above, Shelton discusses a medication therapy management (MTM) plan for a geriatric patient with third-year pharmacy students. A consultation for the senior patient was conducted for a hands-on MTM elective she developed.
I
f you asked her ten years ago, she would have said no. But by the time Penny Shelton, PharmD, was installed as president of the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists this past November, she was committed to leading the national organization. “I never saw myself as president of ASCP but when you get involved, regardless of what level it is, you can see the work you are doing and the difference it makes. It encouraged me to stay involved and serve in larger roles as time progressed,” Shelton said, who is the vice-chair of continuing and experiential education, and associate professor of pharmacy practice at CPHS. Poised and driven to make a difference, her year as president has been focused on broadening the audience of ASCP’s membership and enhancing relationships with stakeholders. “We are trying to put ASCP’s resources and network into the hands of any pharmacist who cares for older adults, regardless of what practice setting they are in, so they can provide quality care to seniors,” Shelton said. Her schedule for the week included a whirlwind trip to Las Vegas and from there to Washington, D.C. “It’s been exhilarating to be out there and doing that level of networking,” Shelton said. She’s never seen herself as someone who has all the answers, to her that is not what leading is about. Instead, she believes it’s about surrounding herself with people that can help her achieve solutions and work towards a common goal. The goal for Shelton is advancing a profession and area of practice that she has been passionate about during her entire career. After graduating from Campbell’s pharmacy program in 1991, Shelton started her career working
two part-time positions in a community pharmacy and at a hospital. While working for the independent pharmacy, she implemented a home health service, typically assisting seniors. In the hospital she functioned as a consultant pharmacist reviewing charts for patients transferring from acute care to a skilled care floor. During this time she realized how much of a difference pharmacists can make with older adults and their medications. This insight compelled her to complete a fellowship in geriatrics. “That is where I really became passionate about having a clinical service with older adults and it was also during the fellowship that I discovered a passion for teaching,” Shelton said. Since finishing her fellowship in 1995, Shelton has held several positions as a senior care pharmacist and served in various roles at the College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences for 15 of the past 17 years. Today she is full-time with the College, and even though she’s serving primarily as an administrator, it’s hard for her to fully separate herself from geriatrics because of the huge impact pharmacists can have on that population. Shelton will always see herself as a senior care pharmacist. Five months in, she’s now got her feet wet and looks forward to the rest of her year as president and the opportunities to advance ASCP’s vision and the pharmacy profession. “I feel like I have a unique perspective and an ability to give back to my profession, especially in the area of geriatrics; but on an even larger scale, I want to make an impact by further promoting the role, image and value of pharmacists in all different arenas,” Shelton said. cphsalumni.campbell.edu

nergized! That’s the word that comes to mind when I think about the past few activities I’ve attended on campus. The Alumni Association and the Admissions Office partnered for a Fighting Camels basketball game watch in January. It was a fantastic time – the event started with a reception in Maddox Hall to welcome incoming students. Gaylord made an appearance, and we watched our men’s basketball team dunk their way to victory. I attended the Pharmacy Alumni Student Association (PASA) meeting at the end of January to kick-off our Leadership Book Club. Thank you to Harris Teeter for purchasing a Strengths Finder 2.0 book for each PASA member and alumni mentor. Alumni Association members will mentor a group of highly engaged and motivated PASA students to help them optimize their unique strengths. February brought the first Alumni Association Membership Phone-a-Friend Event. During the fourhour event, the Association recruited or renewed more than 70 alumni memberships! Crystal Dowless, PharmD ’09, and Melissa Stancil did an outstanding job coordinating the event, and the Board had a blast competing for new members. The next few months promise to be equally energizing. During March and April the Association mentors will meet with their PASA groups to discuss and learn more from the Strengths Finders 2.0 exercise. April will bring the Alumni Association’s 11th Annual Golf Classic and our College’s 25th Anniversary Gala. Erin Sievers Bastidas, PharmD
’00, and the golf committee are diligently working to make the golf tournament awesome! Please consider sponsoring a hole, a gift, or a team and please come out and play on April 13! Make plans now to attend our biggest event of the year – our 25th Anniversary Gala!! The Gala is April 28 at Artspace in downtown Raleigh. It will be a great time to see classmates, your favorite faculty, make new friends, and celebrate our College’s silver anniversary. The Alumni Association will recognize several CPHS pharmacy heroes that night, so I hope you will come to help us mark this important milestone in our history. Finally, I want to say thank you. This year has been such a great ride. I feel truly honored to have served as the president of the CPHS Alumni Association and represent each of our alumni. The board members and alumni office team have done a tremendous job of representing the voice of all of our alumni and I have greatly enjoyed getting to know you. You’ve made an indelible mark on my heart and have helped create some wonderful memories. I hope I’ve made the Association stronger in some small way, and I am excited to leave you in the enthusiastic hands of Mary Margaret Johnson, PharmD ’05, MBA ’05, MSCR ’07. Lead on with CU Pride! Always Orange Proud!
