To celebrate Donate Life Month, hosts Dr. Alexandra Bixby and Dr. Stephanie Witek are joined by Dr. Kayla Joyal, Dr. Emily Sartain, and PharmD Candidate Shahreen Sharma to chat about organ donation. Drs. Joyal and Sartain are chair and chair-elect of the AST TxPharm Organ Donation Workgroup. Shahreen Sharma shares her extensive experience working on organ donation projects and how she has taken advantage of the virtual world to expand her reach. Our expert panelists teach us how to talk to the community about organ donation, give us ideas for jumpstarting organ donation awareness events, and educate us about the AST TxPharm Organ Donation Challenge.

For the latest edition of the mTOR You Know, we are excited to present the research roundtable, a crossover between the ACCP IMTR PRN New Practitioner Council and Research Committee. Our hosts, John Lyons and Alicia Lichvar (our incoming IMTR PRN Chair!) discuss the challenges, trials, tribulations, and joys of transplant pharmacy research with a star-studded cast of Drs. Rita Alloway, Jillian Fose, Mei Jorgensen, and Katie McMurry. This roundtable discussion is not one you want to miss!

Hosts Dr. Jillian Dann and Dr. Alexandra Bixby take us on an educational journey through burnout, joined by a panel of some of our favorite veteran transplant pharmacist colleagues Dr. Matt Harris, Dr. Jennifer Melaragno, and Dr. Samir Patel. Our hosts not only provide some education on the definition, signs, and symptoms of burnout in the workplace, as well as some of the literature surrounding burnout in the medical professions, but we are also given some insight as to a new transplant pharmacist burnout inventory that is under development by Dr. Harris's ACCP IMTR PRN Workforce Committee! Dr. Melaragno provides her experience with dealing with the stress and potential of burnout as she transitioned to a working mother, Dr. Patel shares his insight shifting between clinical pharmacy and industry, and both Drs. Harris and Patel share some tips and tricks for residents through their experiences as RPDs. How is this podcast under an hour long?!

For our second episode of The mTOR You Know, we are joined by new practitioner members Dr. Amanda Condon-Martinez and Dr. Laura Cotiguala, along with (former) PGY2 members Dr. Kimberly Goehring and Dr. Lauren Schumacher for a roundtable discussion about the job search process, the transition from PGY2 to New Practitioner, as well as tips and tricks for starting new transplant pharmacy services.
