On December 14, 2022, the first quarterly meeting of the first cohort of GMU-WSU Fellowship in Clinical Pharmacy Research was conducted. Prof. Danial Baker, WSU and Dr. Dixon Thomas, GMU presented two model papers in clinical pharmacy research. Fellows Dr. Ahmad El Ouweini and Dr. Shabaz Gulam presented their research plans. A panel of experts provided feedback to the fellows to enhance their research quality and impact.
The College of Pharmacy at Gulf Medical University launched its Fellowship in Clinical Pharmacy Research program in Fall 2022 in collaboration with Washington State University. The GMU-WSU Fellowship is a 2-year program and is the first of its kind in the Middle East. The main driving force for initiating this program is to create opportunities for pharmacists to become “clinician-scientists” and to establish an academic path for excellent clinical pharmacists to pursue an academic career side by side with their careers in practice.
