On Saturday, March 7, 2016 the University of New England’s Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) and the Interprofessional Student Advisory Team (IPSAT) presented the Lisa Pagnucco Interprofessional Service Award to Jeff Nevers, M.A., affiliated professor in the Department of Physical Therapy.

The award was named in honor of M. Lisa Pagnucco, former assistant professor in the College of Pharmacy, in recognition of her commitment to interprofessional education, training, practice and student development, specifically for her vision and leadership of IPSAT.

The award is given annually to a UNE faculty or staff member in recognition of his or her dedication to interprofessional service, education, training, and practice at UNE, helping to ensure that our graduates leave UNE with a strong foundation in collaborative practice. Nevers was recognized by students for consistently going ‘above and beyond,’ including his outstanding support of the IPSAT case competition, career planning assistance and guidance on professionalism and interprofessional education.
