Ecivon is the word “novice” spelled backwards. With novice meaning “A person new to a field or activity”, we chose Ecivon to represent the opposite meaning of novice, defining Ecivon as “A resource to make one experienced, wise or skillful through education related to anticoagulation, asthma, cholesterol, diabetes, and high blood pressure.”
The Ecivon Project Group is responsible for the content and management of the ecivon.onu.edu website. There are four “teams” that consist of a faculty mentor, and four pharmacy students.
