THE Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) National Board has elected Professor Mark Naunton as President Elect at its Dec 2025 board meeting.
Professor Naunton, who served as immediate past National Vice President with Caroline Diamantis, replaces Associate Professor Fei Sim, who has served as National President since Jul 2022.
The Board has also elected Bridget Totterman as National Vice President (elect) to fill the vacancy created by Prof Naunton's election.
"I am honoured to have been supported by the PSA Board as the President Elect," Prof Naunton said.
"PSA is an organisation on the rise, and I am committed to continuing the growth trajectory of the organisation in recent years.
"This growth agenda provides PSA with the opportunity to do more for pharmacists, to make a bigger impact for pharmacists and help pharmacists be the best that they can be."
Assoc Prof Sim thanked PSA members for their support over the last three and a half years, and welcomed the election of Prof Naunton.
"I look forward to continuing to serve on the PSA Board and give my full support to Mark and the elected leadership team as they take up their roles early in the new year," Assoc Prof Sim said.
During her tenure, PSA membership exceeded 20,000 for the first time as a national organisation, the national conference has grown year-on-year, and the organisation has returned substantially improved financial outcomes.
She also presided over the negotiation of the first Strategic Agreement of Pharmacist Professional Practice, established the PSA Foundation, and negotiated the acquisition of the Australasian College of Pharmacy.
The new team will commence their roles from Jan 2026. KB
