83. Types of Networking (Not the Human Kind!)

Intended Audience: Newcomers to Pharmacy Informatics or Technology

On today's episode, we go over different types of computer networking. There are a lot of acronyms out there and it can be get confusing very fast. Even though these are not pharmacy informatics or pharmacy-specific terms, you may run into these terms in your career if you deal with any sort of pharmacy technology systems. We're talking about local area networks, wide area networks, personal area networks, and a bunch of other area networks out there. Let us know if you enjoy this episode and we can continue to have a technical episode once in a while in the future!
