THE International Pharmaceutical Federation has confirmed the 2023 members of its Early Career Pharmacist Group (ECPG) steering committee and subcommittee, which this year includes four Australian pharmacists.
Kate Wang from Alfred Health and RMIT University is the Academic Pharmacy Section Liaison, while Erin Cooper from Capital Chemist Wanniassa in the ACT - and former National Australian Pharmacy Students' Association President - is responsible for Congress Liaison, a key role given that this year the highly anticipated FIP World Congress is taking place in Australia.
Also on board is Amelia McLeod who is Leadership Development Coordinator in the FIP ECPG Projects team, as well as the University of South Australia's Sherilyn Wong, who is Publications Coordinator on the ECPG Public Relations team.
The ECPG aims to encourage young pharmacists to get more involved with FIP and to network with other pharmacists globally.
The 81st FIP World Congress of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences is scheduled to take place 24-28 Sep in Brisbane, with the theme "Pharmacy building a sustainable future for healthcare - aligning the goals".
