Our Research Agenda
Research Agenda
In an effort to generate meaningful evidence related to improving people’s health through pharmacists’ patient care services, the APhA Foundation has created a Research Agenda to guide new project development from 2014-2017. Our goal is to leverage pharmacists' unique knowledge, skill, and accessibility as an asset in the delivery of patient care. The APhA Foundation will proactively develop partnerships and seek funding to support research that focuses on the chronic diseases, healthcare issues, settings, teams, and populations as described in the agenda, but will remain agile and respond to important opportunities as they emerge.
