Statement

---

Pharmacogenetics is a growing field of medical care where pharmacy meets genetics to improve medication safety and efficacy. Emili fell in love with genetics while working as a Clinical Laboratory Technologist performing clinical genetic testing, thus pharmacogenetics was a very natural fit for her once she started pharmacy school in 2012. Since then, she has been dedicated to learning all she can about this exciting field of pharmacy and research, and sharing her knowledge with others. She has engaged in several opportunities in pharmacogenetic teaching and research, including 2 studies focused on pharmacogenetic implementation at Marshfield Clinic, co-teaching the Pharmacogenetics Certificate Program at Marshfield Clinic and precepting Marshfield Clinic pharmacy students and residents interested in pharmacogenetic research. It has long been a dream of hers to see pharmacogenetics implemented clinically, and she is currently helping direct a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals and researchers to implement alerts into the medical record that will tell doctors when a patient has a genetic result that is pertinent to a medication they may take. Her goal is to improve patient care by serving as a resource for questions on pharmacogenetics for Marshfield Clinic patients, staff and providers, and she is very excited to help Marshfield Clinic become a leader in this field.
