If you’re looking for information on the latest trends, discoveries, and findings in the fields of pharmacy and pharmaceutical science, the College of Pharmacy has the perfect prescription: PharmCast! PharmCast is a College of Pharmacy hosted podcast and vodcast that features interviews with faculty and pharmaceutical experts on a wide variety of current topics, including medication management, discoveries in new vaccines, drug regulations, and much more.
PharmCast was created in the spring of 2019 by three creative and enterprising first-year PharmD classmates who wanted to educate fellow UGA College of Pharmacy students, faculty, and staff, as well as the UGA campus and the general public about the important role of pharmacists in the community. Kavya Balaji and Aahuti Patel, both from Suwanee, and Antoinette Morkeh from Dacula proposed their concept to Dr. Duc Do, Assistant Dean of Student Affairs, who gave the trio the green light to proceed, and the project took off. Some of their PharmCast programs have included information about mental health; diversity, equity and inclusion; smoking cessation; Hepatitis C; Pharmacist Appreciation Month, and much more.
