The Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain (RPSGB) today announced the establishment of the Pharmaceutical Science Expert Advisory Panel to serve as the key advisory resource for the professional body on scientific strategy, leadership, advocacy, assessment and review. 

Professor Jayne Lawrence, Chief Scientific Advisor, said: "The Panel of leading scientists and researchers will help build a broad community speaking with a strong, united voice on a wide range of critical issues in a consistent way." 

RPSGB is now inviting nominations and self nominations for scientists and researchers of national and international standing in pharmacy and allied fields.  

Candidates will be drawn from a wide range of disciplinary and professional settings including social, basic and applied science; industry; clinical/hospital; academia; and community practice. 

Membership of the RSPGB is not required for nomination and panellists may also include non-pharmacists and non-UK residents.
