The UCSF School of Pharmacy is recognizing four staff members with SPOT Awards for their exceptional contributions during the first half of the 2025-2026 fiscal year. 

The SPOT Awards, which are part of UCSF’s STAR Program, are $1,500 monetary awards that honor employees for significant achievements and contributions for a specific project or task over a short period of time.

The recipients are:

• Jimmy Hanson, California Poison Control System: Hanson led the rollout of a new electronic medical record system, implemented workflow improvements, advanced an AI call recording project, and negotiated a Micromedex subscription that resulted in cost savings.
• Suzan Revah, Dean’s Office: Revah provided creative, actionable and collaborative input on projects that advance the school’s mission while balancing her regular workload as lead content writer.
• Rachelle Underwood, California Poison Control System: Underwood provided guidance and training to new colleagues, and led creative poison prevention education efforts at community events.
• Cheryl Vaughn, California Poison Control System: Vaughn ensured the success of the first staff appreciation luncheon, while consistently delivering excellent customer service in supporting physicians, residents, schedule adjustments, and facilities issues.
