The City of Pittsburgh issued a Proclamation of Appreciation of pharmacists, student pharmacists and their teams for their care and support of their communities and neighbors. Officials from the city and Mayor Ed Gainey’s office presented the recognition at a Â鶹´«Ã½ Â鶹´«Ã½ of Pharmacy celebration on Oct. 20.

Pitt Pharmacy students independently started an initiative to recognize Pharmacy Appreciation Week in the city and sent an application to the mayor’s office to bring it to fruition.

Committed to developing pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists as innovators and leaders, Pitt’s Â鶹´«Ã½ of Pharmacy is a global leader in education, research and community service. It’s also one of the highest ranked pharmacy schools — No. 13 in the U.S. News and World Report ranking and No. 5 for total research funding from federal grants.
