GERIATRIC RESIDENCY & FELLOWSHIP SHOWCASE

Are you interested in a career in senior care pharmacy? ASCP will host several residency and fellowship programs at the 2026 Annual Meeting all looking for their next resident or fellow! This is your opportunity to answer questions and network face-to-face with the Residency/Fellowship program directors.

Join your peers and experienced professionals to talk about the next steps in starting your career in the geriatric pharmacy profession, landing that residency, and growing your professional network. View our Residency & Fellowship Showcase Guide.

If you are a program director attending the Annual Meeting and would like to participate in the Residency and Fellowship Showcase, please fill out this survey by September 19, 2026.

THE RESEARCH & EDUCATION POSTER SESSION

Presenting a poster at an ASCP meeting is a noteworthy way to share your expertise in a specific area while contributing to the profession. Poster sessions provide authors time to display their work, discuss projects, and network with other attendees. Additionally, accepted abstracts in select categories will be published in the PubMed indexed journal The Senior Care Pharmacist, and the ASCP annual meeting webpage for attendees to view. Top-ranked abstracts will be eligible for the Top Poster Award. Learn more about the Research and Education Poster Session and submission guidelines at ascp.com/posters.

STUDENT CHAPTER ACTIVITY FAIR

You work hard to help your chapter do amazing things. Share your chapter’s story at ASCP's 2026 Annual Meeting & Exhibition with a Student Chapter Activity Poster!

Student Networking

Student Meet-Up Events give you a chance to meet and make connections with students from across the country! These informal, student-run events are open to all student attendees.

Our Annual Meeting provides an amazing opportunity to meet pharmacists and industry professionals in many practice areas! Whether you’re meeting with your mentor at the Ice Cream Social, attending the Geriatric Residency & Fellowship Showcase, or listening to an educational session, you will be surrounded by professionals who want to meet and connect with you. Be sure to bring your business cards and be prepared to make great connections!

TRIVIA NIGHT AND NETWORKING

All students are invited to attend the annual ASCP student trivia competition, GeriPardy!

Students from across the country will compete live in a trivia-night-style competition that tests their wits and knowledge. Topics range from geriatric pharmacotherapy to current events and everything in between. Dress to support your school with your alma mater pride or come ready to celebrate at the after party right after! All members are welcome to cheer on the students during this fun, educational event.
