Each year, distinguished individuals within the pharmacy field are recognized, and this time, Pitt alums Dr. Yardlee Kauffman and Dr. David Johnson will return with the topic of “Living Life on Purpose: Career Satisfaction Demystified”. Our speakers have experience in a variety of career tracks, and they are excited to share their life experiences with student pharmacists.

David Johnson, PharmD, BCPS is a medical science liaison in the neurology group of Alexion Pharmaceuticals. Prior to Alexion, Dr. Johnson was a practicing abdominal organ transplant pharmacist for 10 year, spending the first part of his career at Temple University Hospital and the Temple School of Pharmacy and finishing his career at the Penn Transplant Institute at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Johnson has a BA in neuroscience from the University of Pennsylvania and received his PharmD at the University of Michigan, College of Pharmacy.
