Save the date! Thursday, 6 February 2025 

The IIOP is delighted to announce that it will be hosting a session entitled ‘Next Generation Pharmacy’ on Thursday 6 February 2025 from 14.45-16.45 as part of the RCSI Charter Meeting 2025. 

The session will bring together important contributors from across the healthcare system to present and take part in a panel discussion, providing a forum for sharing perspectives including those of academic researchers, pharmacists across primary and secondary care, policy makers and next generation pharmacists. 

Invitation for submission for next generation pharmacists! 

This year, we are adding an exciting new feature to Charter Day! We are inviting all pharmacy students and pharmacists to make a submission themed around their vision of what a pharmacists’ role will be in 25 years’ time, the year 2050. The submission may take the form of any multimedia format e.g. video, audio, gaming, blog, text, art, infographic, poster, letter, poem…etc.  Please spread the word among the next generation pharmacists.
