A general and radiation oncologist at Muhimbili National Hospital in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, Peter Muhoka spent three days at OSUCCC-James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute after receiving the prestigious International Development and Education Award (IDEA) from the American Society of Clinical Oncology. Recipients of the award travel from developing countries to the annual ASCO conference in Chicago, and then spend a few days at leading comprehensive cancer centers. Yvonne Efebera, an expert in multiple myeloma and the director of the Comprehensive Amyloidosis Clinic, hosted Muhoka during his stay in Columbus. “I learned about new treatments and new medications,” Muhoka says. “We use medications that are no longer used here – now there are better ones. Cancer is on the rise in my country, and we oncologists are few. We are trying our best, but we are not there yet, and if you want to improve the health of your patients, you have to learn more so that you can do more to help them.” Tanzania to Columbus: Award-Winning Doctor Learns From Ohio State Cancer Experts https://cancer.osu.edu/blog/award-winning-doctor-learns-from-ohio-state-cancer-expertsJan 18 2020 07:00am

"I had the amazing opportunity to join an exceptional group of 24 students in Switzerland through The Ohio State University’s International Pharmacy Experience. Our travels took us around the country from the cities of Zurich, Basel, and Geneva to the beautiful Stoos, Luzern, and Lausanne. Through this experience, my fellow students and I were able to visit a Swiss community pharmacy, tour the campus at the Novartis headquarters, engage with students and faculty at the University of Basel, and be ambassadors for Ohio State at the World Health Organization," says Andrew Capozzi a pharmaceutical sciences who studied abroad with The Ohio State University College of Pharmacy during Spring Break 2019. "Additionally, we were also able to observe a Human Rights Council meeting at the United Nations Palace of Nations, eat fondue and chocolate to our hearts' content, ride the world’s steepest funicular railway, stand at the convergence point of three different countries, and participate in the 2019 Basler Fasnacht. This experience was truly extraordinary and allowed for me to explore the rich culture, history, and pharmaceutical industry of Switzerland alongside a diverse range of fellow Buckeyes. I am so utterly grateful for the people, places, and opportunities that my experience with the program has allowed me to cherish." #BuckeyesAbroad #InternationalPharmacy #SpringBreakAbroadJan 17 2020 09:50am
