Today we’re going to be talking with Sang-A Yun, a fourth year student pharmacist at Purdue University College of Pharmacy. She has been involved in various organizations like the Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy and Phi Lambda Sigma and has also been a teaching assistant for five different classes. She is currently on her advanced practice rotations, the first two of which she completed with Novocure and Eli Lilly. She hopes to pursue a pharmaceutical industry fellowship and serve as a preceptor or teach part time at a pharmacy school after graduation.
We'll start with the basics - what was your road to pharmacy school and how did you choose pharmacy as a profession?
You are from Indiana and chose to stay in state and go to pharmacy school at Purdue. What made you choose to stay in state and choose Purdue over other schools in Indiana?
You've been very involved during your time in pharmacy school in various organizations - can you touch on some of the most meaningful ones and how those experiences impacted you and the route you hope to take after graduation?
Both of us are pretty new to the P4 game - you completed your first rotation was at Eli Lilly in Medical Affairs and you are now finishing up at Novocure with a rotation in oncology marketing.
Walk me through a day in the life at each rotation or how the rotation varied from week to week. What made you choose these rotations and what have you learned that will be helpful in your pursuit of a pharmaceutical industry fellowship?
I know going into my first few days at my first rotation were really scary, what advice would you have to new P4's who are just starting out on rotations that you wish you would have known when you started?
You mentioned you were a teaching assistant for five different classes. How did you get involved in that? What was that like? How did that pique your interest in also pursuing an academic role at a pharmacy school in the future?
You want to pursue a career both in industry and in academia. How will you tie those worlds together? I don't know much about the industry side of pharmacy, how can you teach students on the academic side more about it and get them interested?
What are you most excited about as you continue your fourth and final year of pharmacy school? What are you nervous about?

Title: Academic Rotation
Guest: Emily Henningsen (email: Emily-Henningsen@uiowa.edu)
P4, University of Iowa
Welcome to the Pharmacy Podcast Network, I’m your cohost Tony Guerra for the PharmacyFutureLeaders podcast broadcasting from the Des Moines Health and Public Services Building at DMACC’s Ankeny Campus
Connect with me on YouTube where you can find over 900 pharmacy videos supporting my audiobook Memorizing Pharmacology.
Today we have our P4 student, Emily Henningsen, a PharmD Candidate from Preston, Iowa who is looking at both ambulatory care and clinical community pharmacy opportunities. She’s especially excited to help patients with their continuity of care. She chose an academic rotation to impact students and learn what goes on behind the scenes as one develops courses and programs.
Everyone’s leadership road is a little different; tell us what you are doing now and how you got there.
You’re almost a quarter done with your rotations, we’ve talked a little about the ticking clock for this year, how do you manage with job / rotation / life / NAPLEX studying balance?
What’s the hardest part of the three years before your APPE rotations? (two weeks)
You come from Preston, Iowa, which is a smaller to town. We’ve had Brandon Gerleman on who just graduated and is in Winterset and is very pro rural town, tell me about your divide between current opportunities in the profession and underserved communities?
You can’t really know what kind of teacher a person is going to be before they get in front of students. I seen you excel teaching a cohort, a large classroom, and working with students one-on-one, what in your background at Iowa or otherwise do you think made you a good teacher?
Many P4s are essentially homeless, how do you take advantage of the freedom that comes along with moving from one side of the state to the other because you went from Eastern Iowa to Central to Eastern Iowa back to Central Iowa then you bounce from Eastern Central Iowa to Eastern Iowa, anyway, you get the picture.
What are you most looking forward to right now?
What’s it like to be at in the front of the classroom?
What advice do you have for a student who wants to learn to teach that you wish you had known?
How did it feel when students started coming directly to you for advice and help with their class?
You’ve made YouTube videos to help fellow students with their NAPLEX prep, what’s it like to get 1500 views?
What did you learn from interviewing another P4 from another college?
What blanket advice do you have for someone wanting to get to where you are?
How do you prefer people contact you?

Today we’re speaking to Danielle Ofri, MD, PhD is an Associate Professor of Medicine at New York University School of Medicine but her clinical home is at Bellevue Hospital, the oldest public hospital in the country. She is a founder and Editor-in-Chief of the Bellevue Literary Review.
Her newest book is “What Patients Say; What Doctors Hear,” an exploration of doctor-patient communication and how refocusing the conversation between doctors and patients can improve health outcomes.
Everyone’s leadership road is a little different, how did you become a leader in the Patient / Doctor relations space?
As a bestselling author, many think that your life is perfect, what was your most difficult moment as an author that might help others understand the struggle to get to where you are?
We’ll talk about your other books in a little while, but tell me about this newest book, it in some ways seems like a culmination of some of what you’ve learned in other works.
You are the author of four other books about life in medicine, can you tell me how these work together as either a journey or cohesive whole?
What Doctors Feel: How Emotions Affect the Practice of Medicine.
Medicine in Translation
Incidental Findings
Singular Intimacies: Becoming a Doctor at Bellevue
Danielle was also editor of a medical textbook—The Bellevue Guide to Outpatient Medicine—which won a Best Medical Textbook award.
Danielle Ofri writes regularly for the New York Times about medicine and the doctor-patient relationship. Her essays have also appeared in the Los Angeles Times, the Washington Post, the Atlantic, Slate, the New England Journal of Medicine, the Lancet, CNN and on National Public Radio.
How do you get a review from Lancet and other high end publications like these?
How do you balance literary writing and popular writing? Very few people move into both.
Her essays have been selected twice for Best American Essays and also for Best American Science Writing. She is the recipient of the McGovern Award from the American Medical Writers Association for “preeminent contributions to medical communication.”
She has given TED talks on Deconstructing Perfection and Fear: A Necessary Emotion for Doctors, and has also performed stories for the Moth. She is featured in the upcoming documentary: “Why Doctors Write.”

Can you explain the difference between what you do as a business writing coach or a writing coach and we think of athletic teams as needing coaches, how does a writer need?
Can you talk about how writing fits into your schedule of sometimes you have a shift available and sometimes you don’t based on the hospital census?
Can you take us through a day in your life, most recently I spoke with Danielle Ofri, who recently published “What Patients Say; What Doctors Hear,” and to paraphrase, she is ruthless with her time turning down activities that take her away from writing, her family, and her Cello she has no TV in her life or the news …
Why do you think there’s a non-clinical trend for health professionals?
