Dear All
At the 2012 Annual Meeting of the American Association of Pharmaceutical
Scientists (AAPS), the Clinical Pharmacology and Translational Research
(CPTR) Section will recognize an Outstanding Manuscript in Modeling and
Simulation. We are currently soliciting nominations for this award.
The AAPS Outstanding Manuscript in Modeling and Simulation Award is intended
to recognize outstanding achievement in modeling and simulation in clinical
pharmacology and translational research as demonstrated by the author in
quality and originality. The scientific impact of the published work
should be the principle used in nominating the paper and can be based on new
concepts, new modeling procedures, or in the application of modeling and
simulation in drug development.
The lead author of the selected manuscript will receive a $1,000 honorarium,
a framed certificate which will be presented at the AAPS Annual Meeting and
Exposition, and travel expenses up to $1,000 to be paid as reimbursement
following the meeting. If the lead author is a non-AAPS member, a one year
complimentary AAPS membership will also be presented. If the lead author
cannot attend the meeting, travel expenses will be paid to a designee who
will accept the award on behalf of the lead author.
The winner in 2010 was: Snoeck E, Chanu P, Lavielle M, Jacqmin P, Jonsson
EN, Jorga K, Goggin T, Grippo J, Jumbe NL, Frey N. "A comprehensive
hepatitis C viral kinetic model explaining cure." Clin Pharmacol Ther. 2010
87(6):706-13.
General criteria for nominated manuscripts
* must relate to modeling or simulation in drug development and can be
applied or theoretical. It should reflect applications in clinical
pharmacology or translational research. Examples may include population
pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic analyses related to some drug or theoretical
methods related to pharmacometric analyses (e.g., covariate selection).
* must have been published within 2 years prior to the meeting at
which the presentation is made.
* must have been published in a peer-reviewed journal, and be written
in English.
* the lead author does not have to be a member of AAPS.
Nomination packages :
* must be submitted by a member of AAPS
* must include the complete citation for the paper as well as a
clearly written statement of the impact, the significance, and the
originality of the paper that justifies its nomination.
* should be submitted as a single pdf file via email, although a
single Microsoft Word file will be accepted if pdf capability is not
available. The award name must be shown in the subject line of the email.
FAXED OR MAILED NOMINATIONS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
Please send nominations to [email protected] by May 31st, 2012.
