MPA Pharmacy Heroes video stills

WSU Applebaum alumnus and Michigan Pharmacists Association Executive Fellow Zack Mueller, PharmD, approached current Wayne State student pharmacists Johnie L. Bailey and Joseph Paul Javier to help create a video saluting the state's pharmacy heroes for their courage and dedication during the COVID-19 pandemic. And they definitely delivered! The team collected video footage and photos from MPA member pharmacy professionals across Michigan, including a bunch of Wayne State faculty and student leaders. The video debuted at the MPA's Annual Convention and Exposition, and you can watch it on YouTube!
