Five questions for Jennifer Trujillo

Jennifer Trujillo, PharmD., is a professor in the Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences at CU Anschutz. Earlier this year, she was named to the newest cohort of President’s Teaching Scholars, a designation recognizing CU faculty who skillfully integrate teaching and research at an exceptional level. “CU Anschutz brings together experts from so many disciplines: medicine, pharmacy, nursing, dentistry, public health and biomedical sciences,” she said. “Everyone approaches problems from a slightly different perspective, but we’re united by a common goal of improving health. I find that incredibly energizing.”
