August 2018 Vol. 2 No. 5
The beginning of the 2018–2019 academic year marks the 121st start of classes at the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy. I want to extend the warmest of welcomes to our professional and graduate students with a special welcome to the members of the Class of 2022, which for the first time includes three students from China who are the first recipients of support from the China Scholarship Council. The CSC has an agreement with the School to provide support for up to 35 Pharm.D. students and up to 25 students admitted to the Ph.D. program from China over the next five years.
We are continuing our search for the next dean of the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy. The search committee forwarded three candidate names to Provost Bob Blouin for consideration. Two of the three candidates interviewed with the provost, Chancellor Carol Folt and two senior members of the chancellor’s cabinet. Subsequently, after a great deal of deliberation and consideration, the provost has decided to continue the search process.
Provost Blouin made it clear this decision was not made lightly, and we recognize that this will put additional demands on the search committee and School community. The University’s goal is to hire the right person who has all of the experiences and skills needed to ensure the School achieves its true potential in an increasingly complex and competitive landscape. This person must understand and appreciate the profession of pharmacy, be respected within the academy and be fearless in their aspirations for the School,.
I will continue to serve you in my role as interim dean.
Congratulations to Rick Wernoski for his promotion to senior vice provost for business operations for the University. He will play a key role in assisting Provost Blouin in reengineering the operations and infrastructure of the campus. This is a great opportunity for Rick, and I want all of us to celebrate his success and thank him for his service to the School for the past eight years. Rick joined the Office of the Provost on Sept. 4 but will continue to work with and support us after while we search for his successor. Rick’s departure will be a big loss to the School, the institute, and personally to me. However, I am pleased that we are losing Rick to the University, where he will work with the same energy to make the University better just as he did for the School.
On Aug. 14, the School held its first Transformative Diversity and Inclusion Retreat led by Assistant Dean Carla White and the Office of Leadership and Diversity. The turnout of faculty, students and staff was impressive, and I was extremely gratified to see everyone’s interest in finding opportunities to enhance diversity and inclusion within the School. A core part of our mission is a continued pursuit of a culture where all feel welcomed, valued and respected, and we will continue to strive toward this goal with your help.
Finally, I want to acknowledge the passing of one of the greats. Dr. Alan Forrest, one of our faculty members in the Division of Pharmacotherapy and Experimental Therapeutics, died Aug. 25. Although seriously ill, he fought a gallant fight as he believed that he had much to accomplish yet.
Alan contributed to the field of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modeling for well over 30 years as a highly productive and innovative researcher and an educator. He was world-renowned for his work on the use of quantitative approaches and mathematical modeling to optimize patient therapy, and he significantly affected drug development and pharmacotherapy through his contributions in evolving the field of pharmacometrics. He will be sorely missed by his colleagues in the School and around the world and by his students, who were his passion.

UNC Pharmacy, Pharmaceutical Sciences Fifth in World: Shanghai Rankings
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill ranks fifth in the world in pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences, up one spot from last year, according to the 2018 Academic Ranking of World Universities released by the ShanghaiRanking Consultancy, in conjunction with the Center for World Class Universities at Shanghai Jiao Tong University on August 15.
The UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy is the top-ranked pharmacy school in the United States, according to U.S. News & World Report.
The University ranked 6th in pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences in 2017. Overall, UNC-Chapel Hill ranks 30th in the world and 22nd in the U.S. among global universities. This places UNC-Chapel Hill as 9th among U.S. public universities in the global ranking.
Pharmacy Faculty and Students Present at AACP Annual Meeting
The UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy was represented by 13 speakers and over 30 poster presenters at the 2018 American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy annual meeting in Boston.
Additionally, four student-faculty pairs were also honored with the AACP Walmart Scholars award — the most winners from the School in the award’s 14-year history, and more than any other school in 2018.
