Conference Purpose

The purpose of the Midwest Pharmacy Residency Conference is to develop future pharmacy leaders by providing pharmacy residents and fellows from the Midwest region the opportunity to share their experiences from various practice settings.

Conference Goals

To provide a forum where pharmacy residents and fellows can present completed research or research in progress, a special project, or a case study conducted during their residency/fellowship.

To provide a structured setting which allows pharmacy residents, fellows, preceptors, students, practitioners, industry representatives, and national pharmacy leaders to exchange innovative ideas relating to pharmacy practice in organized health care settings.

To create an opportunity for the development of leadership skills among current and future pharmacy practitioners.

To create an atmosphere which encourages professional network support among conference participants.

Conference Sponsorship and Planning

The Midwest Pharmacy Residents Conference rotates each year between major cities in the 13 states that currently make up the Midwest region. Funding for the program each year comes predominantly from industry sponsorship. Each year a committee from the host city plans the conference dates, schedule, location, and elicits funding for the conference from industry sponsors. The national planning committee is responsible for overseeing the conference from year to year and to assist in the planning and fund raising.
