In this episode of the Pharmacy Innovators Podcast, we’re joined by two pharmacy leaders from St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital: David Aguero, Director of Medication Systems and Informatics, and Steve Pate, Chief Pharmacy Officer and Senior Director. They share how their team approaches innovation, from navigating the challenges of an integrated health system to thinking strategically about AI and deciding which new technologies and projects are worth pursuing.
