In short

Strong Pharm.D projects are usually clinical and patient-centred - case studies, drug-utilisation reviews, pharmacovigilance and adherence studies. Choose one ethical, feasible question and build a research profile you can use for higher studies or industry.

Doing it ethically

  • Obtain institutional and ethics approvals where patient data is involved.
  • Anonymise data and follow consent norms.
  • Keep scope realistic for your clerkship timeline.
  • Authorship follows genuine contribution (ICMJE), not courtesy.
