“It’s critical that educators collaborate with practitioners to adapt to industry changes as they prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals,” said ASAHP President Deb Larsen, Ph.D., FASAHP. “These Regional Summits provide real-time collaborative opportunities for academic institutions and health industry partners to share challenges and come up with solutions to improve health outcomes for the U.S. population. Whether it’s forging new partnerships, adopting new technologies or adjusting a curriculum to reflect new research, we believe these ASAHP Regional Summits will play a key role in improving the future of clinical education.”
