Welcome to the new 2024-2025 members of the NPX Advisory Team!
An introduction to our new NPX board members.
NPX Overview
Greetings! As our new Advisory Team members get up and running with their roles, I wanted to take this opportunity to remind folks of NPX’s role within OPA and describe our new position as an official committee within the organization.
P4 to Resident Reflection
APPE year was fantastic. It began with moving to Columbus, OH, a place I had never explored before. It was definitely an upgrade from the cornfields surrounding Cedarville University, where I spent six years completing undergrad and most of pharmacy school. I was blessed with good rotation schedules that made it feel like I was working a normal job, just like all of the new friends I was meeting...
Spinach and Feta Egg Muffins
This recipe is my go-to meal prepped breakfast that gets me through the semester! I’ve also replaced the spinach with cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and breakfast sausage, which have all been delicious. Feta can also be substituted for 4-6 oz. of your favorite shredded cheese. Sauteing the vegetables before baking is also unnecessary if you prefer a more al-dente texture.
