Practice/Research Interests

Dr. Gibbard has practiced pharmacy primarily in the hospital setting with some moonlighting in the retail setting. His teaching responsibilities relate primarily to acute cardiovascular disease and the intersection of social sciences and humanities to patient-centered care. His research interests are typically related to the "soft skills" of pharmacy, including empathy, cultural sensitivity, and health literacy.

For more information, see Dr. Gibbard's CV.

Outside the Classroom

Outside of the classroom, Ryan enjoys visiting the Oregon Zoo with his family, reading (mostly fiction), and playing basketball on Sunday evenings with a bunch of other old guys. He is an avid baseball fan (Go Royals!) and a perennial favorite in any Fantasy Football league.
