4th Year Pharmacy Students Plan to Purchase Rural Community Pharmacy After Graduation

P4 students Dustin Crabtree and Lindsey Compton-Crabtree look forward to using the education they have received through UM's Skaggs School of Pharmacy to facilitate the purchase and transition of pharmacy practice services at a rural community pharmacy in Portola, California. The couple, who will graduate with their Doctor of Pharmacy degrees from UM in May 2020, specifically chose to attend school at UM for the "expertise in the needs of rural America, their specialized training for delivering health care in remote areas, and the interdependence on independent pharmacies." Both students credit UM for preparing them for the unique needs of their rural community through experiences in the IPHARM program, specialized training in diabetes care, and extensive training in asthma management.

HHP Faculty Receive Continued Funding for Occupational Athlete Research

Faculty members in the Department of Health and Human Performance at UM were recently awarded funding from the U. S. Forest Service’s National Technology and Development Program to continue developing programs to assist the nation’s wildland firefighters with injury risk, and the physical, nutritional, and mental demands of their jobs. The grant, which to date totals 1.15 million dollars, includes faculty members and graduate students in the fields of exercise physiology, biomechanics, athletic training, performance psychology, and community health. Leading fire organization, FireRescue1, recently named the project's podcast “On The Line”, as one of the top ten podcasts for firefighters. The project also features an information portal called “The Black” to serve the nation’s wildland firefighter population.
