For 125 years, Temple University School of Pharmacy has trained the pharmacists who keep patients safe. This fall, we're marking that milestone by convening the people working every day to prevent medication errors, curb prescription drug misuse, and build safer systems of care.
Join us for the TUSP 125th Anniversary Medication Safety Conference, a full day of keynote insights, panel discussions, hands-on education, and student research, hosted at Temple University's Medical Education and Research Building (MERB).
This is more than a School of Pharmacy event. It's a Temple-wide collaboration, bringing together faculty and learners from all areas of healthcare, including pharmacy, medicine, dentistry, public health, nursing, physical therapy, podiatric medicine, occupational therapy, social work, and more, because medication safety is everyone's job.
Why This Conference Matters
Medication errors remain one of the most preventable causes of patient harm in the U.S. healthcare system. And with healthcare changing so rapidly, it is often difficult to stay abreast of current safety issues. This conference brings the science, the systems thinking, and the lived clinical experience together in one room, anchored by the guidance of a true expert in the field
The event is proudly supported by Michael R. Cohen, RPh, M.S., ’84, ’68, TUSP alum, founder of the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP), and MacArthur Fellow, whose work over four decades has reshaped how hospitals and health systems prevent medication errors nationwide.
