GSK international achievement award 2007
The Royal Pharmaceutical Society is inviting nominations for the 2007 GlaxoSmithKline international achievement award, the winner of which will be invited to attend the British Pharmaceutical Conference in September to give a special lecture.
The award recognises an individual or a team of up to six researchers who through
published work over the past three years have demonstrated a substantial advancement
in the application of scientific knowledge within the pharmaceutical sciences.
The award is open to researchers in academia, industry, public service or any
other scientific establishment across the globe. There is no age limit. Applications
will be judged on scientific quality and the actual or future applicability to
industrial practice.

presentation, a cheque for £1,000 and expenses for the successful applicant
or team leader to attend the BPC in September to give a lecture on the work.
Nominations are requested either direct from the scientists nominated or from
any other individual or organisation within the pharmaceutical industry. Submissions
