Early career pharmacy researcher award (OPERA 2025)

By BOPA Committee on 4th December 2024

My name is Zita Zachariah and I am the Managing Editor of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society research journals. I am reaching out since we felt that the members of the British Oncology Pharmacy Association may be interested to know that nominations for next year’s award OPERA2025 have now opened.

The OPERA award was launched in 2022 to celebrate contributions by up-and-coming researchers to the advancement of the science of medicines and clinical pharmacy. All shortlisted candidates for the OPERA award will be featured in the Pharmaceutical Journal and so this is a valuable platform for early career researchers to gain visibility in the pharmacy community.

OPERA nominations are

  • open to all UK based early-career pharmacy practice/pharmaceutical sciences/health services researchers,
  • all applications will be anonymised before judging and
  • self-nominations are welcome.

Best Regards
