Understanding generational similarities and differences that exist between both learners and educators will facilitate meaningful interaction and improve learning outcomes. A common pitfall among preceptors is to judge the values of their pharmacy learners based on the stereotypes of the generations.

Evidence-based interventions have been shown to improve the quality of patient care, reduce costs, and improve overall health outcomes; however, adopting new published research and knowledge into practice has historically been slow, and requires an active, systematic approach to engage clinicians and healthcare administrators in the required change. Pharmacists have been identified as important agents of change and can enhance care delivery in primary care settings through evidence-based interventions. Utilizing the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) we identify, assess, and share barriers and facilitators to program development, as well as growth and expansion efforts across five discrete, university-subsidized, embedded-pharmacy practices in primary care.

In 2000, the National Institute of Health launched the National Nanotechnology Initiative to support, coordinate, and advance research and development of nanoscale projects. The impact of this new program on health-science related research and development became quickly visible. Broad governmental financial support advanced the start of new, and the deepening of already existing, interdisciplinary research.
