Pharmacy Resident Poster Opportunity

ADURS2025 Symposium Poster Session for Pharmacy Residents

Dear Residency Directors, Program Directors, and Directors of Pharmacy,

The American Drug Utilization Review Society (ADURS) is seeking an opportunity to partner with Pharmacy Residents.  Residents no longer need to be managed care specific.

Members of ADURS are individuals active in drug utilization review (DUR) of the 50 State and District of Columbia Medicaid programs.  The mission of ADURS is to provide a forum of leadership and support for the membership to obtain information, develop skills, and receive training to efficiently and effectively perform their duties.

The annual symposium is the main educational event of ADURS. The 2025 symposium will be held on February 20-22, 2025 in San Diego, California.  Only representatives from the corporate attendees of ADURS and individuals directly involved with a State Medicaid DUR initiative and/or program are invited. The symposium averages around 120 individuals representing an average of 43 State Medicaid programs and includes a Poster Presentation Session.  ADURS symposiums are funded by registration fees only.

We are willing to offer up to two scholarships (one (1) author per poster abstract) for symposium travel (airfare only), registration, and hotel accommodations to pharmacy residents who participate in the Poster Presentation Session at the 2025 symposium.  Poster abstracts shall be submitted to the Poster Committee for approval. It is acceptable to submit as a work in progress.  Poster content must be relevant to Medicaid drug utilization review, health equity, mental health, or obesity.

Starting with the 2023 symposium, ADURS allows one (1) additional resident author from each winning application to attend at a reduced registration fee of $275 (**50% of the 2025 Additional State Attendee rate) with travel and lodging at their own expense.  Additional resident must be listed as an author on the winning scholarship application to attend.

If your resident is interested, please have them complete a Resident Scholarship Application by Monday, December 2, 2024 at 12:00PM (Noon) Central Time.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.

Thanks.
