If you missed PharmaSUG - as I did - you still like to stay on top of the great information that comes out of the conference. I found the list of Best Contributed Papers and decided to post them here for you.  There is a lot of other great information on the PharmaSUG site about this year's event, including the Proceedings, Game Night winners, conference photos and a summary of the adult literacy drive results.  (PharmaSUG attendees raised $2,006.76!)

Congratulations to these Best Contributed Paper winners! (By the way, do you get extra points for having the most characters in your title?!)
