SUMMARY:PGx ECHO
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, February 17 | 1-2 pm ET (12-1 pm CT) | Virtual \nThe University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy invites all actively practicing clinicians to join their Pharmacogenomics (PGx) ECHO project. PGx ECHO aims to improve health professionals’ confidence in using PGx in patient care by providing case-based education and consultation through telementoring. Every month\, clinicians from across the nation seek PGx advice regarding real clinical cases. PGx ECHO is modeled on the all-teach-all-learn principle and encourages interactive and engaging discussion between attendees and facilitators. \nThe University of Minnesota works with colleagues at Children’s MN\, Ferris State University\, M Health Fairview\, Manchester University\, North Dakota State University\, South Dakota State University\, and Sanford Health to coordinate and facilitate the monthly sessions. PGx ECHO meets the third Friday of every month over the lunch hour. For past ECHO cases and topics\, and a schedule of upcoming cases\, please visit the PGx ECHO website. \nIf you are interested in joining\, please use this link to register. \nPGx ECHO is for practicing clinicians with direct patient care responsibilities. Student learners are welcome to join. \nIf you would like to present a case or have any questions\, please contact pgxecho@umn.edu. \n \n  \n
