Nominations or applications
for the 2008 Practice Research Conference Award are invited for the
consideration of the BPC Practice Research Panel.
Purpose of the award
This prestigious award, previously sponsored by the Chemist and Druggist
magazine, and now being sponsored by the Pharmacy Practice Research Trust,
is intended to recognise individuals who have:
• made a significant contribution to the field of pharmacy practice
research and
• have the potential to become a leader in the field.
Typically, applicants should be at the mid-point of their career e.g.
Senior Lecturer or Senior Research Fellow. The winner of the Award will
receive a cheque for £1000 and will be required to deliver a 30 minute
lecture at the 2008 Conference. The lecture should be based primarily on
the applicant’s own research but should also draw on relevant published
work from related fields including health policy.
Applicants do not have to be based in a School of Pharmacy and do not have
to be a registered pharmacist. International applicants are welcome.
Application Process
If you wish to apply for this important award please submit:
• A full academic CV which includes details of significant grants awarded,
publications, professional and academic track record including peer review
experience.
• A brief personal supporting statement of up to 2 sides of A4.
• Your proposed lecture title, an outline of the topics to be covered in
the lecture and a statement of how the research to be presented
contributes to knowledge in relation to healthcare generally and pharmacy
practice specifically.
Applicants will be judged against the following criteria: grants held,
quality of published research, collaborations (national and
international), evidence of research leadership, relevance of research to
policy and practice, and quality of proposed lecture content.
The closing date for applications is 5pm on Friday 14th March 2008.
The successful applicant will be notified in May 2008.
