Donate to the Silent Auction!

As you might already know, we will be hosting our Annual Seminar virtually this April, and we also plan to host the Silent Auction virtually. The money raised from this event will go directly toward the OSHP Student Scholarship Fund which benefits pharmacy students at both Oregon State University and Pacific University. Each year, several $1,500 scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic performance, health care-related work experience, leadership, community service, and scholarly activities.

The Silent Auction is organized by students from both universities. We are working hard to make this virtual event a success, but we cannot do it without your support. 

We are reaching out to see if you might already possess auction items or experiences you’d be willing to donate that can help us make this event a success. We think people might enjoy some of these experiences that were so lacking in 2020. 

  • Would you like a hiking buddy for a day trip to the Gorge?

  • Do you have season tickets for something you’d be willing to share?

  • Do you have a nice bottle of wine collecting dust in your cellar?

  • Do you have a teachable skill you could share with someone in an afternoon?

  • Are you the creative type?  Can you make something someone would want to use?

If you would like to make a donation, please email the attached form in the link below with your pledge to [email protected] by April 23rd, 2021. We recognize these are challenging times, so please do not feel obligated to donate or go out of your way to purchase something.

Take care,

Chapter Presidents for OSU/OHSU and Pacific University


Present a Pearl

Pearl Session: Saturday May 1, 2021 from 11:30am-12:00pm

(Clinical Pearl Sub Committee Co-Chairs: Louis Kouch, Lauren Olberding, and Jessica Knechel)

The 2021 OSHP Spring Virtual Seminar will feature a session on pearls that will be moderated by the OSHP Student Chapter.  This educational format is always popular at state and national meetings because it is fast paced and interesting.  Pearls provide a quick, practical tip that can be immediately incorporated into your practice.

The seminar committee and student chapter are seeking presenters for the pearls session.  This is a fun way to share valuable information with your peers.  Because of the casual format and brevity of the presentation, it is also an excellent, low stress opportunity for first time presenters.  Please consider what useful tidbit you may already be carrying around in your peripheral brain; what idea or concept you use daily that was passed on to you by a helpful preceptor or colleague; or what you learned through sheer luck or arduous searching- all of these topics would make outstanding pearl submissions.

For details on how to submit a pearl or what it entails, please click hereThe deadline for submission is March 7, 2021.  We have a limited number of spots for pearl presenters this year, so send your proposal in early!  Presenters will be notified on March 15, 2021.  If you have questions about submitting a Clinical Pearl or would like to discuss potential ideas, please contact Louis Kouch at [email protected], Lauren Olberding: [email protected], or Jessica Knechel at [email protected]

Present a Poster

OSHP invites all members to submit a poster for presentation during the 2021 OSHP Spring Virutal Seminar on April 29 - May 1, 2021. This is a great opportunity to display your initiatives and share ideas. We all want to see the great work you are doing, so why not take the opportunity to develop a poster!

The poster session will be held on Saturday, April 30th.  Poster presentation details will be forwarded to presenters at a later date. 

Projects do not have to be complete; they can be still in the implementation phase or just starting.  If you do not have any data yet, do not let that keep you away.  Describe the project goals and aims... results can come later.

OSHP poster session utilizes guidelines similar to those of ASHP and ACCP.  For participation in the poster session, abstracts should be submitted to the OSHP Annual Seminar poster planning committee by March 5, 2021.  Poster abstracts will be reviewed and presenters notified by March 12th, seven weeks prior to the seminar.  If we receive more abstracts than available spaces, we will review and select abstracts based on applicability to OSHP member practices.  The abstract guidelines and format are attached below:



Posters are presented in two categories: students and practitioners/residents.  Prizes for first and second place will be awarded in each category.

For more information or to submit an abstract, contact Chelsea Harmon at [email protected] or Shelby Stewart at [email protected].
