Faculty of Pharmacy (FoP) of the University of Puthisastra (UP) has been making efforts to host the international conference on pharmaceutical research where all pharmaceutical researchers can gather to celebrate their achievements, share knowledge, and learn from each other in order to improve their research quality. So far, FoP have held 4 rounds of research conferences with more than two hundred participants in each round from multidisciplinary pharmaceutical sciences fields. At the conference, researchers, pharmacists, academicians, and pharmacy students will share their research findings, and discuss ways forward to improve pharmaceutical research quality and encourage researchers and students to conduct more research. During the event, there was a panel discussion from invited speakers, oral presentations, and poster presentations.
The release of the “Call for Abstracts” was announced months before the conference. The submitted abstracts were passed through the review process by the scientific committee of the conference. The outstanding abstracts will be either oral or poster presentations during the event and were categorized into tracks as follows:
- Track 1: Pharmacy Education
- Track 2: Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmacology
- Track 3: Pharmacognosy

The conference is organized by faculty members of the Faculty of Pharmacy (FoP), University of Puthisastra under the leadership of Prof. Chea sin, Dean of Faculty of Pharmacy. It is the national conference for the pharmacy profession held for the purpose of sharing knowledge, experiences, and successes among Cambodian pharmacists. Our committee plans to make this event happen every year to enhance collaborations and share successes. More than that FoP aims to provide CPD to all pharmacists in Cambodia who join this conference to fulfill the scores for their practice license.
Medicinal plants have played an important role in human healthcare as the essential ingredients of traditional medicines for thousands of years. It is reported that more than 80% of the world populations still rely on medicinal plants as a source of primary healthcare. Botanical gardens worldwide play an important role in the conservation, cultivation and utilization of plant species along with research activities related to ecology, taxonomy, systematics, biotechnology, etc. Botanical Garden (Figure 1) currently situated inside building J was established in 2012 as the Medicinal Plant Garden of Department of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, and University of Puthisastra. Botanical garden cover with a total area of 100 square meters, has been built on the 3rd floor, Building J, University campus. The Botanical Garden has a living collection of approximately 100 medicinal plant species. A variety of medicinally significant herbs, shrubs, and trees are planted in a well-defined section of the garden.
The cultivated plants are beneficial in the practical classes of pharmacognosy and natural products contests. This professionally designed medicinal plant garden serves as a significant catalyst for the study of herbal drugs and trains undergraduate and graduate students. The student, a recent graduate of the Faculty of Pharmacy, uses it to obtain the raw materials and fresh plant specimens needed to conduct research on herbal drugs and other natural products.

Our research team are the full-time lecturers and full-time staffs as shown in the table below, we together improve pharmaceutical researchers in Cambodia.
The number of pharmacists is increasing every year to meet market demand. However, pharmacists from various disciplines have little opportunity to share what they are doing in the field of work, their experiences, challenges and success stories with their peers for discussion or advice. In addition, there is little opportunity for pharmacists to have Continuing Professional Development (CPD) in Cambodia. The Pharmacy Council of Cambodia (PCC) is responsible for enforcing the Law on the Management of Health Professionals and setting minimum standards for further professional development to be followed by all pharmacists in Cambodia.
The decision of PCC on the minimum standard of CPD requires pharmacists to meet the minimum number of hours of CPD related to the profession, as well as increase their professional knowledge and ability to provide management, production, quality assurance, distribution of drugs to patients or clients in accordance with ethics, pharmaceutical standards, quality, safety and efficiency.
What is CPD?Continuing Professional Development (CPD) takes a multi-dimensional approach to long-term career development. Any learning activities undertaken by professionals for developing new skills and enhancing their current capabilities represent elements of CPD. Committing yourself to ongoing improvement provides you with the opportunity to stand out from the crowd as a leader in you field. Whether considering a career change or pursuing promotion with an existing employer, it is essential to update your skills and knowledge on a regular basis. The approach you take to CPD is up to you, but anything you do to broaden your horizons could prove invaluable for your long-term progression.
Why do we need CPD ?In the context of rapid technological advances, production management procedures, quality assurance, supply, distribution of medicines, protection for medical care, the growing public expectation and the need for quality of care as well as better accountability. CPD is recognized as an important way for all pharmaceutical professionals to maintain their professional capacity.
What are the benefits of CPD ?Continuing professional development can help you regularly update what you have learned from basic training and reflect changes in the profession to ensure that production management, quality assurance, supply, distribution of medicines, preventive care, quality, safe, effective and apply new knowledge to your patients, clients or community.
Research evidence shows that within five years of completing the training, the acquired knowledge base becomes obsolete, and therefore, if professional development is not pursued, practice will not perform well and may pose a high risk to patients, clients and communities (e.g., illness and death). CPD is not only a guarantee of the professionalism of the professionals but also a key indicator for ensuring the quality of their professional practice.
Scores and Active study hours of CPDEach CPD starts from the date on which the PCC issued each pharmacist's license until the date the license expires.
Cambodian Pharmacists are required to complete a minimum of 40 points for CPD over a two-year period.
For each year of CPD, Cambodian Pharmacists professionals are required to complete a minimum of 20 points of CPD each year.
One point of CPD is equal to one hour of active learning, meaning 40 points of CPD in two years equals 40 hours of active learning.
Active learning is the actual number of hours that an accompanying pharmacy professional actively takes part in academic activities to maintain their professional capacity and development. The score for each CPD activity depends on the actual number of hours that the health professional is actively involved in the study activity. Time spent on program activities such as registration, breaks, snacks, speeches, and other programs is not recognized as active learning and cannot be classified as a point of further professional development.
Types of CPD activities for pharmacists in Cambodia are:- Group Discussion
- Webinars
- Training Course
- Short Course
