Dr. Chandrashekar

University of Findlay - USA

Professor, College of Pharmacy, University of Findlay, Findlay, OH USA 45840; email – sekar@findlay,edu

Academic Qualification - B.Pharm, M.Pharm [Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani, India]; MS, Ph.D [University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada]. Post-doctoral fellow – Madison, WI, USA

My commitment to this endeavor in improving pharmacy practice in India has been recognized by both my Alma Mater [BITS, Pilani] and Indian Pharmacist Association, as they have bestowed on me B.M.Mithal Memorial and M.L. Khorana Memorial award, respectively.

Vision Statement – Availability of novel therapeutic products for various treatments and aging global population has increased the need for pharmacists to play an ever-important role in patient care.  The academic institutions in West have responded by modifying curriculum, increasing duration of education and awarding PharmD degrees -making it a requirement for pharmacy practice.   Many developing nations, including India, have copied the six-year educational program, but it had made little impact on reality of pharmacy practice at the ground level. My vision will be to expand - what I have done during the past decade at my University by providing opportunities for Indian pharmacy students to visit and learn pharmacy practice for the 21st century, to the global arena, so patients all over the world can get benefitted from pharmacist’s knowledge and services.
