Replicating a chemistry-pharmacy research approach in Malawi
Impact
- Dr James Smith (Participant)
Description of impact
Following the publication of my research on enhancing the chemistry experience for pharmacy undergraduates, I was approached by the University of Malawi wanting to reproduce the study in their College of Medicine.
Who is affected
I will advise individuals at the College of Medicine, University of Malawi on the design of a questionnaire.
Narrative
A lecturer at the University of Malawi read my paper titled "Enhancing the chemistry experience of pharmacy students", J.R. Smith, M.K. Chungh, S. Sadoq and A. Kandiah, Proc. Int. Bus. Ed. Conf., London, 7-11th June (2015).
He is interested in reproducing the study to profile students studying Medicinal Chemistry to Pharmacy students as well as Foundation Chemistry for premed students (MBBS, physiotherapy, laboratory, sciences and pharmacy); he stated that he saw relevance to their curricula.
A publication is anticipated in addition to generating valuable information that will inform teaching at the College of Medicine, University of Malawi.
