Highlights of 2019/2020:

Membership:

The Chapter continues to see strong interest and support from pharmacists in the industry and those keen to understand what industry pharmacists do. In 2019, we saw many newly minted pharmacists added into the WhatsApp interest group. Many fruitful discussions and advice graced the group chat as it hosts both veteran and young pharmacists.
 

Activities:

In 2019, we coordinated and led 1 career talk in November. We were also deeply honoured to co-organize the inaugural fundraising seminar for the Alfred and Lucy Wan Science Merit Scholarship with the NUS Department of Pharmacy. This scholarship will support deserving undergraduate pharmacy student in their education. All the talks were well attended and well received by the participants.

 

Awards:

PSS-ICM Industry Pharmacist of the Year Award 2019

One of our chapter members, Ms Tracy Chean Ning Wei, Regulatory Affairs, Quality Assurance and Pharmacovigilance Manager, Asiana at Galderma Singapore Pte Ltd, being awarded the ICM-PSS Industry Pharmacist of the year award for her contribution to the profession. We would like to convey to her our heartiest congratulations.
 

Plans for 2020/2021:

For 2020, we will continue to focus on reaching out not only to the industry pharmacists to bring them back into the Society as well as the chapter but also to the young pharmacy undergraduates from the Department of Pharmacy at NUS to expose them to the industry. We will also continue on the successful and well received activities and come out with more events to engage our members from the industry.
