Harutyun Khachatryan
@harutyunkhachatryan
Pharmacist focused on overnight operations, clinical medication support, and quality assurance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Doctor of Pharmacy-trained pharmacist committed to safe, compliant medication delivery and strong clinical decision-making. I hold multiple pharmacist licensures and immunization/injectables authorizations, and I bring a patient-centered mindset built through dispensing, counseling, and autonomous overnight coverage.
In my current role as an Overnight Staff Pharmacist, I lead end-to-end fulfillment operations and maintain strict quality assurance across packet and bulk dispenses. I also train incoming staff, oversee operational workflows during site opening weeks, manage logistics between clinical production and distribution, and guide complex medication therapy questions during overnight shifts.
Previously, as a Dispensing Pharmacist in long-term care, I evaluated physician medication orders for appropriateness of drug, dosage, interactions, and route of administration, recommending therapy changes when needed. I also prepared and dispensed medications with accurate labeling and storage practices, and I performed sterile IV compounding using strict aseptic protocols to meet regulatory standards.
Alongside my clinical work, I’ve supported drug discovery research as a Research Assistant, including luciferase-based and high-content screening, plasmid purification, and CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing (including knockout work tied to autophagy of melanoma). I’ve contributed to identifying novel inhibitors of tubulin polymerization using a CRISPR-Edited cell line and published my work in Biomolecules.
