Rajesh Joshi Memorial Bursary
 
  1. The British Society for the History of Pharmacy & The Health Education Foundation offer a one-off Bursary of £500 to a student at, or associated with, a School of Pharmacy or other higher educational establishment.
  2. The winner of the Bursary undertakes to research the history of the National Pharmacy Association (NPA) since 1997.
  3. The winner of the Bursary will give a 20 minute presentation at the Annual Spring Conference of the British Society for the History of Pharmacy. The Conference in 2016 will be held between 1st and 3rd April in Reading, Berkshire. Due to the unique nature of the project, a presentation at the 2017 Conference due to be held in London would be considered.
