Summary:
Pharmacy research isn't just about creating new medicines and products, but crucially, it's also about being able to make sure that we can correctly use medicines, new and old, to bring about the best treatment for patients possible. In this episode of PharmaCast, Dr Dan Corbett is joined by Professor Carmel Hughes (Professor of Primary Care Pharmacy) and Dr Heather Barry (Lecturer in Primary Care Pharmacy) for a discussion around what primary care research is, how it's done, why it's a critical part of healthcare research, and some of the key findings that they've both made during their reseach careers to date!
