About this episode

This episode features top pharmacy students from VCU and SJU discussing their winning strategies in the VIP Case Competition.

On this special episode of the IPhO Podcast, we’re doing something a little different! Instead of featuring pharmaceutical industry leaders or fellows, we’re spotlighting our incredible pharmacy students—specifically, the top two winning teams from the 2024-25 VIP Case Competition: Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and Saint Joseph's University - Philadelphia College of Pharmacy (SJU)! Join us as we sit down with Anna Liu, team lead from VCU, and Christ Do, team lead from SJU, to hear what set their teams apart. They’ll break down the key elements that led to their success, including their team strategy and timeline, how they leveraged their networks to gain insight from fellows, and the leadership styles and team dynamics that helped them stand out. If your chapter is planning to participate in the next competition and you want to know what it takes to win, you won’t want to miss this episode!
