The CPNP Foundation is excited to announce the Defining the Future Research Grant program, an annual grant for students and residents interested in conducting psychiatric or neurologic pharmacy research, including those who are members of CPNP student chapters. With this grant program, the Foundation seeks to support and encourage residents and students who will ultimately define the future within our discipline.
Applications are being solicited for projects matching the Foundation’s interest areas. For 2015 the proposed research should address: 1) stigma associated with psychiatric or neurologic disorders or 2) comprehensive medication management as a best practice.
Up to three applications will be funded annually. Those funded will each receive up to a $1500 award. Awardees are required to submit their results as a poster at the CPNP 2016 Annual Meeting at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, Colorado, to be held April 17 - 20, 2016.
Grant applications must be submitted through an online application process by 11:59 p.m. Central Time, August 31, 2015; awardees will be announced October 1. Awardees must submit their abstracts to CPNP by the January 2016 deadline through the poster submission portal available no later than November 2015.
This is an excellent opportunity for students and residents to work with experienced professionals to improve research knowledge, skills, and abilities. The Foundation Board is very pleased to be able to support the scholarly development of students and residents as they strive to improve the care of patients living with psychiatric and neurologic disorders.
