2025 Feurt Symposium | Transforming Tennessee’s Public Health: The Pharmacist’s Role in Weight Management

An Annual Tradition in Pharmacy Excellence
The University of Tennessee College of Pharmacy is proud to host the annual Feurt Symposium, sponsored by the Seldon D. Feurt Endowment. Established to honor former Dean Dr. Seldon Feurt, this enduring tradition supports scholarships, fellowships, research, and the future of pharmacy education.

This year’s symposium will spotlight obesity management, a pressing public health challenge affecting over 40% of U.S. adults. Pharmacists are uniquely positioned to bridge gaps in care, providing patient education, initiating evidence-based therapies, and advancing collaborative models to improve outcomes.

Join us as we explore strategies, skills, and innovations that empower pharmacists to address one of today’s most critical healthcare needs.
