Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers--Awards in Pharmacoeconomics

The Faculty Development Awards in Pharmacoeconomics program compares
the value of pharmaceuticals and the value of the quality of life
they provide with costs. The purpose of this program is to strengthen
representation of pharmacoeconomics in schools of pharmacy, medicine
and public health by helping to maintain the present academic 
capability and ultimately to expand this by broadening the faculty 
base.

Faculty Development Awards in Pharmacoeconomics: The thrust of the
    program is to further the research, teaching, and administrative 
    skills at a critical time in an individual's career development. 
    The program anticipates that the candidate should have teaching 
    responsibilities, but these must not interfere with the 
    opportunity for the candidate to extend his research skills.
    The emphasis of the program is on assisting those who are
    beginning their independent careers as full-time faculty members
    on tenure track.

Eligibility:  Applicants must have USA citizenship or permanent 
    residency. Candidates must have a doctoral degree and have or are 
    being considered for full-time primary appointments as instructors 
    or assistant professors at schools of medicine, pharmacy, health,
    economics, or public health. The applicant may apply if he/she will 
    be on tenure track by the time the award begins in July. Faculty at
    the doctoral level with equivalent positions are eligible to apply.
    Before an individual is eligible to apply for a PhRMA Foundation
    award, he/she must first have a firm commitment from a USA university.    

Period: Two years.

Award: The award should be used for salary and fringe benefits of the
    appointee. Payment of the award will be made directly to the 
    institution on behalf of the individual, in quarterly payments
    beginning July 1 of each year.

Deadline: Applications must be received by September 1, 1997. Note:
    Applications must be submitted by an accredited school in the USA.
