A total of $50,000 in funding is available to be awarded in 2013 through a competitive peer-review process described below.
Purpose
The individual award is intended to support a hematology/oncology pharmacy practice research project with subsequent publication that aligns with the strategic plan of the HOPA Foundation. Pharmacy practice is broadly defined including areas such as outcomes, surveys, patient safety, standards validation, and translational science applications. Multiple institutions may be involved in the project, and co-PI projects are allowed. The grant is open to all members of HOPA except standing members of the HOPA Foundation and HOPA Board Members.
Review
The HOPA research grants are intended to provide support for projects that are likely to result in facilitating the efforts of hematology/oncology pharmacists to optimize the care of individuals affected by cancer.
