how many instances of "i" are there in:
as founding chair of pharmacy practice, i was drawn to this region in 2006 by the spirit and passion of this community to establish a college of pharmacy in northeast tennessee. prior to the establishment of the gatton college of pharmacy, students were forced to leave the region in order to fulfill their dreams of becoming a pharmacist. as i reflect on the last 8 years of our history, i am pleased to report that we have successfully assembled a team of highly trained and skilled pharmacist clinicians, scientists, and educators, well beyond our wildest expectations. our faculty now provide students of this region and beyond with a progressive, world-class, student-centered pharmacy education. in doing so, our faculty engage students in interprofessional training and the opportunity to participate in innovative research and scholarship, dual-degree programs, and service to the university, community, and profession.
throughout the curriculum, and especially in the fourth year, our faculty provide students with opportunities in innovative community practice, independent community pharmacy ownership, advanced practice in primary and acute care, and collaborative research with faculty from the college of medicine, college of nursing, and college of public health. specialties represented within the department include: oncology, psychiatry, neurology, internal medicine, infectious diseases, diabetes, family medicine, pediatrics and drug information in addition to the roles filled by generalists in ambulatory/primary care, community pharmacy (medication therapy managements), and acute care hospital-based practice. adjunct faculty within the community offer experiences in intensive care, emergency medicine, advanced compounding, home infusion, nuclear pharmacy, hospital and community pharmacy management, among others.
in recent years, the department has continued its pioneering activities in the development of advanced pgy2 ashp-accredited residencies in specialized areas of pharmacy practice including ambulatory care/family medicine and internal medicine---the first such advanced practice residencies in the region. this year marks the expansion of our postgraduate training program to include research fellowships in community practice with an emphasis on prescription drug abuse. the department will continue to expand its postgraduate training program in the future to include other specialized residencies.
