Pharmacy Fika

Exploring mysteries, being inquisitive, and approaching the world with a sense of wonder are at the very heart of the academy. In this epidose, Jeff leads a discussion about curiosity. Dr. Daniel Malcom shares with us the connection between aviation "incidents" and drug safety ... and how stories, deprivation "gaps," cognitive dissonance, and critical reflection can cultivate curiosity.
