The Long Island Society of Health-System Pharmacists proudly hosted the 2026 Annual Anthony T. Buatti Pharmacy Residency Research Symposium on Thursday, April 30th at the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research. The event brought together pharmacy residents from across Long Island to showcase the innovative research and projects they developed throughout the year. Attendees had the opportunity to support and celebrate the next generation of pharmacists as they continue advancing the profession through research, collaboration, and clinical excellence. Amazing job to all of our residents!
A special thank you to Adele McHugh for allowing us to continue this meaningful tradition in honor of her father’s legacy and his longstanding support of the pharmacy profession.
