The Clinical Practice and Research Network meets bi-monthly and is comprised of a group of ICHP member pharmacists or associates who practice in a clinical specialty or who conduct clinical research. This Network provides an opportunity for these specialists and researchers to meet for professional interaction and continuing professional development.
