Call for 2005 international achievement award nominations
Nominations for the GlaxoSmithKline International Achievement Award and the Astra Zeneca Industrial Achievement Award for 2005 are being requested.
The GSK award recognises an individual or a team of up to six researchers
who have demonstrated through published work over the past three years
a substantial achievement in the application of scientific knowledge
within the pharmaceutical sciences. It is open to researchers in academia,
industry, public service or any other scientific establishment.
The AstraZeneca award recognises an individual who has given an outstanding
contribution to either the advancement of the pharmaceutical sciences
or services to the pharmaceutical industry. It is open to all pharmaceutical
scientists and technologists currently working for, or associated with,
the pharmaceutical industry.
Award winners will receive a cheque for £1,000. Individual winners,
or leaders in the case of a successful team, will also be invited to
attend the British Pharmaceutical Conference in September 2005 to give
a lecture on their subject.
John Clements, the Royal Pharmaceutical Society’s science secretary,
said: “These awards offer an opportunity to recognise researchers
who have made important contributions to pharmaceutical sciences.”
