Five accomplished University of Kentucky College of Pharmacy alumni — three in 2021 and two in 2022 — were inducted into the College’s Hall of Distinguished Alumni.

2021 inductees include Young Alumni Award winner Dr. Joshua Brown (’16) and Lifetime Achievement Award winners Dr. Eiichi Akaho (‘79) and Dr. Stephen W. Schondelmeyer (’77). Their peers selected these three new inductees for their exceptional contributions to their respective fields and their embodiment of UKCOP values.

2022 inductees for the Lifetime Achievement Award are R. Kim Brazzell (BS ’75, Ph.D. ‘79) and Henry J. Mann (BS ’76, PharmD ’80, R89). Their peers selected the new inductees for their notable contributions to their respective fields.

“For more than 150 years, the University of Kentucky College of Pharmacy has produced outstanding pharmacy practitioners and researchers who have changed how we think about patient health and scientific progress,” said Dean R. Kip Guy. “We are proud to celebrate the achievements of these bold innovators who have dedicated their lives to improving the way we teach and practice pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences.” Nominations are collected year-round and selected once per academic year.
