Dr. Rodis' areas of focus include advancing pharmacy practice through empowering current and future pharmacists to develop and sustain patient care services, advocacy and partnership engagement to influence patient access to pharmacist-provided care, and leadership of the college’s outreach and engagement efforts aligned with the Land Grant mission of The Ohio State University.
Jennifer L. Rodis, PharmD, FAPhA received her Doctor of Pharmacy degree from Ohio Northern University. She is a graduate of the Community/Ambulatory Care Residency at The Ohio State University College of Pharmacy (COP). Dr. Rodis is a Regular Clinical Track Faculty Member and serves as Associate Dean for Outreach and Engagement at COP. She created Partner for Promotion in 2005 and has served as director since its initiation. This nationally-recognized program joins students and community-based pharmacy practitioners to develop and implement advanced patient care services. She has facilitated adoption of PFP at eight colleges of pharmacy across the U.S. since 2009. In addition to this experiential teaching, Dr. Rodis leads professional development threads through the Doctor of Pharmacy curriculum with a focus on leadership and professional identity formation.
Dr. Rodis’s research aligns with her aim to advance patient access to pharmacist-provided care which involves investigations and papers on individual service developments, multi-site or statewide advancement projects, student education on practice and professional advancement, as well as policy papers that influence these topics. She co-leads an academic Pharmacy Practice Advancement and Advocacy Fellowship to support these endeavors.
In her role as Associate Dean for Outreach and Engagement, Dr. Rodis recently led OSU to receive the AACP Lawrence C. Weaver Transformative Community Service Award twice – in 2017 and 2023 – the first college to do so in the U.S. Learn more about the college’s Outreach and Engagement efforts here.
