pittpharmacy_matthewgray_0030Matthew Gray (Class of 2018) was recently selected as a Fellow to participate in the 2016 JHF Jonas Salk Fellowship program. The JHF Jonas Salk Fellowship, led by the Jewish Healthcare Foundation and Health Careers Futures, provides a forum for graduate students across the health sciences to explore innovative ideas and methods for improving healthcare delivery, engage in interprofessional collaboration to tackle healthcare delivery challenges, and connect with experts and thought leaders in the field.

In the 2016 Fellowship Program, entitled, “Master-Designing the Future of Healthcare, Starting Over”, students will meet weekly over a two-month period to draw on population health concepts, new technologies, and rapidly growing data resources to imagine and create a master design for a new healthcare system, from “scratch.”

The fellowship experience will complement Gray’s past coursework in pharmacy, participation in the Research ARCO, and engagement in mentored research projects with PittPharmacy faculty, as he pursues a career in pharmaceutical outcomes and economics.

Gray’s mentor is Assistant Professor Carolyn Thorpe, PhD, MPH
