Pharmacy establishes Diamond Scholars Club
The UNMC College of Pharmacy recently inducted an inaugural cohort of 10 members into a newly established honor society – its Diamond Scholars Club. The club recognizes pharmacy faculty who have achieved 100 or more peer-reviewed publications.
“Reaching 100 publications is a significant achievement because it recognizes a strong and enduring research program,” said Aaron Mohs, PhD, associate dean for research and graduate studies, who presented the awards. “Each publication symbolizes discovery, innovation, education, training, mentorship, collaboration, perseverance and a commitment to improve human health.”
