McCarthy, Jr., Pharm.D., class of 2010, the goal of the journal is to enhance the pharmacy student awareness of the value of residency training.  This peer-reviewed scholarly journal will celebrate the contributions pharmacy residents make in practice as they grow both personally and professionally.  Pharmacy students, residents, pharmacists and healthcare professionals may sign up for a free electronic subscription at www.jhpr.org. Also visit this website if you are interested in publishing work of any topic or specialty pertinent to health-system pharmacy practice authored during residency training.“Among pharmacy students, there is a growing recognition of the value of residency training.  This trend is strongly supported by Colleges of Pharmacy having a philosophy stressing the importance of these programs.  Pharmacy students interested in residency training strive for more knowledge and experience, and a better understanding of the new and challenging roles for pharmacists in the future.” states Dr. McCarthy, Jr.
