Does Teamwork Make the Dream Work in Health Professions Education?

Pharmacy Fika

In this epidose, we speak with Lindsey J. Yates, DDS - Associate Professor, Department of Restorative Dentistry, School of Dental Medicine and Assistant Director, Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education, the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus - about the benefits and challenges of interprofessional education. There are lots of natural connections and topics that faculty, practitioners, and students could explore together ... but often, the incentives are misaligned.

• Introductions and Fika Sharing from 0:00 to 4:38
• Our conversation about interprofessional education starts at 4:38
