title: Impact of participation on a solid organ transplant team on student pharmacists' perceptions of interprofessional roles.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To examine student pharmacists' perceptions of interprofessional roles before and after completing an advanced pharmacy practice experience on solid organ transplantation.
  
  
  METHODS
  Student pharmacists across the United States participating in an APPE on a solid organ transplant team completed an online pre- and post-APPE survey instrument examining perceptions of interprofessional roles, communication, and teamwork.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Student pharmacists' scores on interprofessionalism increased significantly on 17 of 22 items. Positive changes were seen in the interprofessional education core competency areas of roles and responsibilities, interprofessional communication, and teams and teamwork.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Student pharmacist participation in interprofessional clinical APPEs can positively influence their professional development as they prepare to become members of multi-disciplinary teams in the healthcare workforce.
