2012 Research Awards
We are now accepting applications for the 2012 Research Awards
Submissions
The Pharmacy Practice Research Trust has two practice research awards available to registered pharmacists.
Galen award
One or more awards made annually to a total value of £10,000 funded by a bequest by Rowland Henry Williams.
Sir Hugh Linstead fellowship
One or more awards made annually to a total value of £45,000 funded by a grant from the Leverhulme Trade Charities Trust in order to support research relating to community pharmacy.
All applicants must be a registered Pharmacist (those currently undertaking preregistration training will be considered but will need to have joined the register before receiving funding). As the purpose of the awards is to build research capacity in pharmacy practice the following groups have been identified:
- those requiring funding between PhD and post doctoral grants
- those requiring funding to go from MPhil to PhD
- practitioners new to research
- PhD students requiring 'research costs' to enhance their PhDs
The awards can also be used to fund new areas of research, e.g. pre-pilot and feasibility studies that would not be considered by other funding bodies.
Please note that the Sir Hugh Linstead Fellowship funding has to be used for research that is of benefit to community pharmacy or the applicant must be a community pharmacist due to the source of funding.
The deadline for applications is the 25th May 2012
