BPC £5 deal now open to third-year students
The special £5 fee for the British Pharmaceutical
Conference student day is this year being offered to third-year MPharm students as well as to final-year students and preregistration trainees.
The student day will be on Wednesday 6 September, the third day of the
conference, which takes place at Manchester International Convention
Centre. Students will be able to visit the conference science and practice
sessions during the morning and attend a special student session in the
afternoon.
Student places are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Bookings
can be made through the BPC website (www.bpc2006.org) or through Angela
Lyons at conference organiser Health Links (tel 0121 248 3399; e-mail
alyons@health-links.fsnet.co.uk).
The special fee has been made possible by sponsorship from Merck Sharp & Dohme
and Pfizer.
The chairman of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society’s Conference Committee,
Colin Ranshaw, said: “It is vital that students are actively encouraged
to be part of BPC as they are the lifeblood of our profession.”
The president of the British Pharmaceutical Students Association, Gautam
Paul, said: “The special student rate offers us a unique opportunity to be
part of an exciting event.”
