A Bridge to the Future

BY ADAM HOOD

One of my most rewarding experiences has been through volunteerism and patient care in my community. During my time in Rockford, I was very active in student organizations and spent many hours developing outreach programs and working with patients throughout the community.

One particular program that was started through my student organization, APhA-ASP, that I found especially satisfying was my experience at the Bridge Clinic. The Bridge Clinic is a free clinic in Rockford that caters

10

UIC COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

to those with inadequate insurance or a lack of insurance all together. At this clinic, student pharmacists have only recently started volunteering. In our short time there, we have made an impact on both the patients and the staff. Our primary purpose there is to work with patients on lifestyle modifications, such as smoking cessation, improving their eating habits, and offering them advice when it comes to healthy living. The other major thing that we do at this clinic is to try and find

medication assistance programs to help reduce or eliminate the cost to the patient.

We are just getting settled into the clinic having started only a couple of years ago, but we are enjoying the direct impact that we can have on patient lives. We are able to offer a service that was not available before and that I feel helps expand the role of pharmacy in healthcare.

The Bridge Clinic was very valuable to me as a developing student pharmacist.

I would work on Saturdays at the Bridge

Clinic on a rotating schedule with other students during the school year. During my summers away from Rockford, I made trips back on the weekends specifically to pick up extra shifts. What I enjoyed the most was the patient interactions. Working with the patients one-on-one taught me a great deal about modifying my own communication style in order to establish rapport with the patients. I enjoyed helping people obtain necessary medications and teaching them

about different things they can do on their own.

There are many patients that I would see when they came back into the clinic for a follow-up. Many of them had shown great improvements in their disease state and were more than happy to tell us of their successes. When there were particularly difficult patients, I would reach out to my faculty so they could help me gain a better understanding of how I might more

effectively serve them the next time they were in the clinic. The feeling you get when you are able to help a patient who has lost hope is hard to explain.

The greatest impact the Bridge Clinic had on me as a student was the way it helped me learn communication and empathy. I have been able to apply these skills to all aspects of my life, and they will help to make me a better pharmacist in the future.

What I’ve Learned from MoPhE

BY KATHERINE SENCION

I was on an elementary school field trip the first time I encountered a hospitalized patient. On our tour, we came across a patient in a wheelchair with both of his legs in big casts, and as a 10 year old I asked my teacher why the man looked so worried and scared. After all, it was just a cast, my classmates got them all the time. I was (obviously) too young to recognize that the patient experience is scary, especially when it is filled with unknowns and what-ifs.

Fast forward to my first pharmacy inpatient experience on the floors of Northwestern Memorial Hospital, and I began to catch glimpses of patient emotions. It was in this week of experiential education that I knew I wanted to talk to patients, listen to what they have to say, and work with them to make their lives healthier. So when I first heard about MoPhE, I knew I wanted to be a part of it.

MoPhE, short for mobile pharmacy education, is a student-run patient counseling service at the University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System that provides pharmacy students the opportunity to participate in direct patient care in an interdisciplinary environment.

Each day, pharmacists on the medical and surgical teams place requests for patient

12

UIC COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

counseling on a variety of topics, including insulin training, warfarin and enoxaparin education, and inhaler teaching. Trained pre-APPE students are then responsible for completing each consult that day using the MoPhE unit, which is equipped with teaching aides and handouts, as well as an iPad that is used to show patients instructional videos. Students are then responsible for documenting the encounter appropriately on the patient’s electronic health record. Thus, students are not only learning clinical skills through MoPhE, but are also learning to navigate the workflow in a hospital setting, all while participating in direct patient care.

So what do all the logistics mean for me? It means that I have gotten the opportunity to feel like I’m making a difference in people’s healthcare. In the short time that I have been a part of the program, I have learned an incredible amount about patient counseling. I have counseled patients with a level of health literacy that competed with my own, but I have also counseled patients who were completely confused about their disease and new medications, and I’ve learned to alter my counseling appropriately. I have also learned the importance of developing

a relationship with a patient, even if they will be discharged soon. If I can make a patient smile despite being in the hospital, or if I can ease a patient’s worries about having a new diagnosis, then I know I’ve had a successful counseling session, even if it requires me to work overtime.

MoPhE has allowed me to build upon the education we receive in the college’s traditional experiential setting, pushing me past supervised or simulated environments into situations that I might have once considered uncomfortable.

In the end, MoPhE is an innovative pharmacy experience that every student should have the opportunity to do, and as the program expands through the UI Health system and the Illinois Medical Center in the near future, I believe that most students will have the chance to experience this level of patient counseling in the beginning of their pharmacy education. With original and inventive experiences like MoPhE, our profession can only continue to grow and improve. I feel lucky to have been a part of this program and to be able to learn as much as I have, and I can only wish the same for my fellow future pharmacists.

Learning Resilience in the Navy

BY SAM HOSTETTLER

Pharmacy student Shane Murphy hopes to work as a clinical pharmacist at a VA hospital in Alaska after finishing his studies and residency.

Shane Murphy attributes his resilience to his military service.

“In the military, you learn to handle whatever the world may throw at you and just roll with the punches,” said Murphy, a student in the College of Pharmacy. “You don’t let anything get you down.”

Murphy served in the U.S. Navy as a submarine sonar technician for nine years.

His job was to operate submarine sonar and oceanographic equipment, coordinate sonar and underwater fire control, analyze acoustic data from submarines’ sonar systems, and perform troubleshooting and network and mechanical maintenance.

His other duties involved performing weapon load-outs and maintenance on weapons systems for the submarine to include MK-48 ADCAP torpedoes, Tomahawk cruise missiles, submarine launched mines, and small arms weapons.

UIC COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

During his time in the service, Murphy achieved the rank of Petty Officer 1st Class (E-6). He was awarded two Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medals, a Navy and Marine Corp Expeditionary Medal, two Good Conduct Medals, a Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, an Expert Rifle Medal, an Expert Pistol Medal, four Overseas Service Ribbons, four Sea Service Awards, and the Submarine Warfare Insignia. He is also a Shellback, a title he earned after participating in a crossingthe-line ceremony after he first crossed the equator.

Murphy was forward deployed out of Guam on the USS City of Corpus Christi, where he completed missions in the Pacific Ocean. He also served at the Navy Ocean Processing Facility in Virginia Beach.

He left the military in 2012 to pursue higher education. He received an associate degree in 2013 from Tidewater Community College in Virginia Beach, then transferred to UIC. He is in his first year of the Doctor of Pharmacy program at the College of Pharmacy.

“I chose the UIC College of Pharmacy because it is one of the best in the country and with an education from here, it will open up limitless possibilities in the field of pharmaceuticals,” Murphy said.

He is the photographer for the Student Veterans Association and a member of the Illinois Council of Health-System Pharmacists. He also volunteers with the Student Veterans Association at the AntiCruelty Society, helping train dogs to make them more adoptable.

After graduating from the College of Pharmacy, he plans to pursue a residency in clinical pharmacy, then work as a clinical pharmacist at a VA hospital in Alaska.

He’s learned a lot about leadership and teamwork by serving in the military.

“Leading by example is the best way to show leadership and gain the support and trust of the people working with you and for you,” Murphy said.

At Your Service

Service is central to everything a pharmacist does, and at UIC we instill that ethic in our students early. The following numbers represent the amount of service provided by students in the 2014-2015 school year.

Researchers Design First Artificial Ribosome

BY SAM HOSTETTLER

Researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago and Northwestern University have engineered a tethered ribosome that works nearly as well as the authentic cellular component, or organelle, that produces all the proteins and enzymes within the cell.

The engineered ribosome may enable the production of new drugs and nextgeneration biomaterials and lead to a better understanding of how ribosomes function.

The artificial ribosome, called Ribo-T, was created in the laboratories of Alexander Mankin, director of the UIC College of Pharmacy’s Center for Biomolecular Sciences, and Northwestern’s Michael Jewett, assistant professor of chemical and biological engineering.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CREATION 22

UIC COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

The human-made ribosome may be able to be manipulated in the laboratory to do things natural ribosomes cannot do.

When the cell makes a protein, mRNA (messenger RNA) is copied from DNA. The ribosome’s two subunits, one large and one small, unite on mRNA to form the functional unit that assembles the protein in a process called translation. Once the protein molecule is complete, the ribosome subunits—both of which are themselves made up of RNA and protein—separate from each other.

In a new study in the journal Nature, the researchers describe the design and properties of Ribo-T, a ribosome with subunits that will not separate. Ribo-T may

27 Disclosures

be able to be tuned to produce unique and functional polymers for exploring ribosome functions or producing designer therapeutics—and perhaps one day even nonbiological polymers.

No one has ever developed something of this nature.

“We felt like there was a small—very small —chance Ribo-T could work, but we did not really know,” Mankin said.

Mankin, Jewett, and their colleagues were frustrated in their investigations by the ribosome’s subunits falling apart and coming together in every cycle of protein synthesis. Could the subunits be permanently linked together? The researchers devised a novel designer

ribosome with tethered subunits—Ribo-T. “What we were ultimately able to do was show that by creating an engineered ribosome where the ribosomal RNA is shared between the two subunits and linked by these small tethers, we could actually create a dual translation system,” Jewett said.

“It was surprising that our hybrid chimeric RNA could support assembly of a functional ribosome in the cell. It was also surprising that this tethered ribosome could support growth in the absence of wild-type ribosomes,” he said.

Ribo-T worked even better than Mankin and Jewett believed it could. Not only did Ribo-T make proteins in a test-tube, it was

11 License and Options

able to make enough protein in bacterial cells that lacked natural ribosomes to keep the bacteria alive.

Jewett and Mankin were surprised by this. Scientists had previously believed that the ability of the two ribosomal subunits to separate was required for protein synthesis.

“Obviously this assumption was incorrect,” Jewett said.

“Our new protein-making factory holds promise to expand the genetic code in a unique and transformative way, providing exciting opportunities for synthetic biology and biomolecular engineering,” Jewett said.

“This is an exciting tool to explore ribosomal functions by experimenting with the most critical parts of the protein

synthesis machine, which previously were ‘untouchable,’” Mankin added.

Coauthors on the Nature paper are Cedric Orelle, Teresa Szal, and Tanja Florin of UIC’s Center for Biomolecular Sciences and Erik Carlson of the department of chemical and biological engineering and the Chemistry of Life Processes Institute at Northwestern University.

The study was funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the National Science Foundation, and the David and Lucille Packard Foundation Fellowship.

RxCARES™

BY MAT THAMBI

RxCARES™ is an innovative pharmacy practice model that focuses on the transition of care between hospital and home for high-risk medicine inpatients.

It was initially started as a postdischarge follow-up program in 2011 to expand the services that inpatient pharmacists offer beyond the hospital discharge. The initiative quickly added a reconciliation program once the high number of errors on discharge was noticed. Realizing help was needed, staff created a structured

26

UIC COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

process that allowed the program to be led by fourth-year APPE students. The RxCARES™ process includes the following components: • • • • • • •

R econciliation D rug interaction checking C are coordination A ccess and adherence R isk reduction E vidence-based review S avings

Both the structure and data collected were eventually interwoven into one database. The data generated has been used to provide continuous quality improvement to the structure. Since inception, the initiative has doubled the number of students, allowing it to expand to family practice, add automatic referrals to pharmacy-run clinics, and add discharge counseling and prescription filling services.

As an example of interventions during the academic year, students of RxCARES™ have made over 1,000 changes to patients’ medication lists prior to admission that are subsequently used for discharge reconciliation. Students have also made almost 200 changes to inpatient medications, resolved nearly 200 errors on the discharge instructions given to patients, made over 100 changes to prescriptions

written, and discovered about 100 prescriptions that were not given to the patient or sent to the appropriate pharmacy.

These interventions, among many others, have helped students realize early on in their education what a large impact pharmacists can have on their patients and have provided patients with a systematic, higher level of care that is continually being improved.

$1 Million Gift From Foglia Foundation to Update Pharmacy Lab

GIVING

A donation to the College of Pharmacy will improve the compound laboratory, which has been almost unchanged since the building was constructed in 1953.

BY SAM HOSTETTLER A $1 million donation to the College of Pharmacy will turn its old compound laboratory into something new.

The Foglia Family Foundation provided the gift to renovate the college’s aging laboratory, where students learn how to develop and test combinations of active pharmaceuticals and delivery systems for new formulations so that the ingredients are effective, stable, easy to use, and acceptable to patients. Construction is expected to begin in summer 2016.

The existing 7,000-square-foot lab is almost unchanged since the pharmacy building was built in 1953. The compounding lab has “required decades of effort and creativity to overcome its shortcomings,” said College of Pharmacy dean Jerry Bauman.

UIC COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

Bob Dickman, BS ’52, was an incredibly loyal alumnus and friend of the college.

Bob was born and raised in Kankakee, Illinois, a mere 60 miles from Chicago.

He spent his college days at the Westside Medical Center, graduating from the University of Illinois College of Pharmacy.

He then worked at several pharmacies, gaining valuable work experience in his field.

“On my return [from the Korean War],” Bob said, “I accepted the position as director of pharmacy for a local hospital in Rockford, Illinois. Some years later, I moved to a supervising position in the in-patient pharmacy for the University of Wisconsin Hospitals. Later I returned to Rockford to establish and serve as director of pharmacy and medical services for the new State

of Illinois Mental Health Center for twelve years.” His continuing contacts with the school remained important to him to his last days.

Bob passed away on October 20, 2014.

Before he passed, he penned these lines in reference to his career in pharmacy: “… and there isn’t any service I can give, which I should scorn, for it may just be the reason

that God allowed me to be born.”

Pharmacy was supremely important to Bob Dickman. It was more than a vocation, it was his service. His calling. And even today Bob is still giving to the career that gave him so much. Through an estate gift, Bob was able to create a state-of-theart classroom on the Rockford campus outfitted with the latest distance learning

technology. The Bob Dickman Classroom is a gift to his adopted hometown, his beloved profession, and his alma mater. But more importantly, it is a gift to future generations of pharmacists.
