The CPNP Foundation is excited to announce that the 2017 Defining the Future Research Grant cycle is open! This is an annual grant for students and residents/fellows interested in psychiatric and neurologic pharmacy, including those who are members of CPNP student chapters. With this grant program, the Foundation is able to provide financial support to future pharmacists who are paving the way in defining the future and improving the care of patients with psychiatric and neurologic disorders.
The goals of the proposed research project must be consistent with the vision and mission of the Foundation, which can be viewed at cpnpf.org.
Up to three grants will be awarded. Grant recipients receive grant monies of $1500 to fund their research outlined in their grant application and will be required to submit their results as a poster abstract at CPNP 2018 to be held at the JW Marriott in Indianapolis, Indiana from April 22-25, 2018.
Grant applications must be submitted through the online application process by 11:59 p.m. Central Time, August 31, 2017. Recipients will be announced October 1, and research abstracts must be submitted to CPNP through the poster submission process, due by the published January 2018 deadline. Watch for CPNP announcements in the coming months for more information on the abstract submission process and timeline.
This is an excellent opportunity for students and residents to gain exposure and network with professionals in the field regarding research that will improve the care of patients with psychiatric and neurologic disorders. The Foundation is looking forward to experiencing your enthusiasm and creativity as exhibited through your research and poster abstract.
