Management and partners
Senior Project Team at Southampton Medicines Advice Service
The Medicines Learning Portal was established in 2016 by Dr Simon Wills, Southampton Medicines Advice Service (SMAS), University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust. With the aim of standardising the training on clinical problem solving for trainee and newly-qualified pharmacists, Simon led the project to set up the site and co-wrote much of the original content.
Since his retirement, the site is now managed by Angela Badiani with IT support from Jenna Power, and content creation and quality assurance from the entire SMAS team.
