Chapter Information
The AAPS-University of Wisconsin (UW) Student Chapter was established in 2002. The
mission of the UW chapter is to facilitate communication, education and fellowship
between students through exploration of current topics and career paths in pharmaceutical
research. The chapter strives to connect its members with AAPS and the pharmaceutical
industry, and hopes to foster a sense of community. Regular chapter activities include
roundtable lunches with pharmaceutical experts, speakers and seminars, picnics,
recreational activities and field trips.
