National Summer Student Research Program Awards
Each Canadian Pharmacy School will receive one award worth $1,250 (in Canadian dollars) in order to select an undergraduate pharmacy summer student to present his/her research project findings at the Canadian Society for Pharmaceutical Sciences Annual Meeting.
The funded student must complete a "hypothesis testing" research project and have had an abstract submitted and accepted to the previous Canadian Society for Pharmaceutical Sciences Annual Meeting. Projects in all disciplines of Pharmacy (Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Pharmaceutics, Pharmacology, Pharmacy Practice and Clinical Pharmacy) are eligible.
