Bio: Dr.
Luczak is a Postdoctoral Fellow and Adjunct Assistant Professor with the
Department of Pharmacy Practice and Pharmaceutical Services at the
University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy, Duluth. She earned
her PharmD from the University of Minnesota in 2018 and completed a PGY1
residency at St. Luke’s Hospital in Duluth, Minnesota. After residency,
she moved into the pharmacogenomics postdoctoral fellowship where she is
currently working to implement a clinical pharmacogenetics program at
Essentia Health. Her pharmacogenetic service implementation has coincided
with pharmacogenetic consult utilization with successful clinical
consults occurring both in person and virtually. Her research interests
surround pharmacogenetics implementation and is centered around
integrating pharmacogenetics into existing clinical pharmacy workflows to
expand clinical practice and bring precision healthcare to patients in
Greater Minnesota. In her current role as a postdoctoral fellow,she has
had the opportunity to collaborate with the MN Grand Challenge
Pharmacogenomics Implementation Project and ASHP as well as act as
Co-Course Director in the third-year curriculum.
