Pharmacology Educators Award

Pharmacology Educators Award

The primary goal of this award is to promote participation in the ASPET Annual Meeting by pharmacology educators and to foster career development in pharmacology education.

Pharmacology educators are invited to apply for a Pharmacology Educators Award to help defray the costs of attending the ASPET Annual Meeting. The awards are designed to support attendance at the meeting and ASPET DPE activities, so winners will be strongly encouraged to submit educational symposium proposals for future meetings as well as to actively participate in future ASPET DPE activities.

The award is presented annually at the Division for Pharmacology Education annual business meeting.

The award consists of:

• A commemorative plaque
• Reimbursement of up to $1,000 of registration and approved travel expenses for the winner to attend the ASPET Annual Meeting.
