2012 Grant Competition
The CSHP Foundation is pleased to announce the availability of funding for a research grant(s)
for the 2012 Research Grant Competition. It is important to acknowledge the CSHP Vision
2014 Statement which broadly describes the vision of CSHP, and the Research Committee:
“Equipping pharmacists to practice to their full scope, advocating for the profession,
collaborating with critical stakeholders and fostering engagement and networking
amongst our members”
Novice Researcher Funds Available!
Call for
Applicants!
Of the available funds, 25% (or a minimum of $2,500) will be allocated to Novice
Researchers. The Novice Researcher applicant must have previously been the
principal investigator for fewer than 3 research publications AND fewer than
5 different research presentations (podium or poster). “Principal investigator”
is defined as the first author of the publication or the primary investigator of the
project. A “research publication” is defined as a full peer-reviewed manuscript
(with typical sections of Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion) that is
not an abstract, a case report or case series, or a review article. The grant
application will be judged according to the criteria established for the CSHP
Foundation Grant Competition. It is not necessary that the Novice Researcher
Grant consider the priority research topic. The remainder of the funds will be
available for projects in any area of research related to the pharmaceutical
sciences or pharmacy practice.
Selection will be based on a written proposal and budget that conforms to the
guidelines available from the Foundation. Each submission will be objectively
evaluated and ranked by reviewers external to the Foundation. Please contact the
Chair or one of the members of the Mentorship Sub-Committee for inquiries in
preparing your submission.
Please note: The Researcher agrees, at the conclusion of the Research Project, to
submit the results thereof in a form suitable for publication, to a recognized scientific
journal for publication. The Researcher further agrees to use his or her best efforts to
have the results of the Research Project published.
