Not So Different: Julie Kennerly-Shah, PharmD, on How Biosimilars Can Help Curb COVID-19's Impact
We sat down with Julie Kennerly-Shah, PharmD, assistant director of Pharmacy at the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center-James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute to discuss cost cutting with biosimilars.

We sat down with Julie Kennerly-Shah, PharmD, assistant director of Pharmacy at the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center-James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute to discuss how biosimilars can help curb costs in the time of COVID-19 and beyond.
