The College of Psychiatric and Neurologic Pharmacists

About Us

The College of Psychiatric and Neurologic Pharmacists (CPNP) is a national organization dedicated to improving knowledge and awareness of psychiatric conditions, providing information on career paths in psychiatric and neurologic pharmacy, improving patient care for individuals suffering from mental illness, and promoting research in mental health awareness-related activities. We strive to "create a world where all individuals living with mental illness, including those with substance use and neurologic disorders, receive safe, appropriate, and effective treatment."

The CPNP student chapter at UCSF is a relatively newer student organization that was founded by Julie Nguyen (Class of 2020) in 2016.
