Report of the 2005-2006 Academic Sections Coordinating Committee

An exciting component of the programming is the number of sessions of collaborative programming (five), which involve various combinations of five sections and five special interest groups. Gregory Makoul, Ph.D., of Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine will give the keynote address, while Carole Kimberlin, Ph.D., of the University of Florida College of Pharmacy, will present the closing session. The SAS Section will also conduct an educational session describing how faculty are teaching students about Medicare Part D. Shane Desselle (Duquesne) will describe how he has involved undergraduates in service work helping seniors with Medicare Part D. Patty Darbishshire (Purdue) will discuss her Medicare Part D elective and Bill Doucette (Iowa) will describe how he teaches the planning and evaluation of MTM Services.
