Dr Margaret Watson has been announced winner of the Pharmacy Practice Research Trust’s prestigious 2008 Practice Research Award.

The award will be presented at the British Pharmaceutical Conference (BPC) 2008, on Tuesday 9 September, where Dr Watson will deliver a 30 minute lecture on her award-winning research.

The Trust's Practice Research Award is presented annually to an individual who has made a significant contribution to the field of pharmacy practice research and has the potential to become a leader in their field.

Dr Watson, Senior Research Fellow at the University of Aberdeen and Public Health Pharmacist for NHS Grampian, will receive the award in recognition of her work into the safe and effective supply and use of non-prescription medicines.

Dr Watson said: "I was delighted to be told that I had won the 2008 award. I have spent the past 14 years undertaking health services research and pharmacy practice research, the results of which I hope have and will help to inform future pharmacy practice and the safe and effective use of non-prescription medicines. 

"I feel that this award recognises the contribution that my work, in collaboration with many other colleagues, has made. I have always regarded this as a prestigious award and feel honoured to be one of the winners."

Dr Sue Ambler, Trust Director, welcoming the announcement, added: "Dr Watson's research makes an important contribution to the evidence base needed to demonstrate the input of pharmacy in delivering effective health care.

"Dr Watson is a worthy winner and her work, and this recognition, reflects well the Trust's objective of promoting and developing the field of pharmacy practice research."
