Abstract

Arthur George Lipman, longtime director of clinical pharmacology at the University of Utah’s Pain Management Center, died of myelofibrosis on April 23 at the age of 72. Lipman was a respected clinician and a widely published author and speaker on the subject of pain management. He served as editor of several academic publications, including the Journal of Pain & Palliative Care Pharmacotherapy and the Cochrane Collaboration’s pain, palliative, and supportive care review group. “Art’s passion for advancing patient care and pharmacy practice over the course of a long and illustrious career is inspirational,” said ASHP Chief Executive Officer Paul W. Abramowitz. “Dr. Lipman’s work improved the lives of patients, pharmacists, students, and many others. He will be truly missed, but his life’s work will live on in all those he trained, mentored, and worked with.” Lipman’s editorial and research expertise were recognized in 1999 by the ASHP Research and Education Foundation, which honored him with that year’s Award for Sustained Contributions to the Literature of Pharmacy. He was also the 1980 recipient of the Foundation’s Award for Achievement in Professional Practice.
