Gayle Brazeau publishes letter on American Pharmacy Educator Week in the Forecaster

The Forecaster on Oct. 25, 2010 published a letter by Gayle Brazeau, Ph.D., dean of the College of Pharmacy, who wrote to recognize the important fiscal and societal contributions that UNE's College of Pharmacy makes to the state of Maine. "Our local pharmacy educators and our dedicated staff will help shape the future of tomorrow’s health care through their important work of discovery, learning and providing care every day. Programs at our nation’s 120 accredited pharmacy institutions attract crucial grants and research funds, generate tuition revenues and support hundreds of jobs. The more than 5,900 pharmacy educators across the country play a vital role in improving the public’s health by providing critical patient care in hospitals, clinics and community pharmacies, and often provide care to the most under-served populations."
