With the cancellation of the Eastern States Residency Conference, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, residents around the state needed an alternative venue to present their residency projects. CSHP stepped in and organized the 1^st CT Residency Conference for all PGY1 and PGY2 residents in the state, held virtually on May 28^th. This event allowed pharmacy residents from across the state to virtually present their research projects to other residents, RPDs, and preceptors from across the state.Over the course of the daytime event, 54 residents presented platform presentations and 7 residents presented posters. Eight additional residents presented as part of The Great 8 CE program that evening. Over the course of the day, 220 participants attended presentations for an average of three hours each. Over 120 evaluations were completed, providing valuable feedback to our residents. A special thanks goes out to all of the residency directors, preceptors, and pharmacists from around the state who served as session moderators and designated providers of feedback. We could not have pulled this event off without your help!

This event was combined with CSHP’s annual The Great 8, a CE program. Residents chosen for the Great 8, all CSHP members, gave their platform presentation during the evening hours of May 28^th, after the CT Pharmacy Residency Conference concluded. The Great Eight Abstracts are posted on this web site.
