His contributions to field of Child Mental Health through research and literally work, to our Department and College of Physicians and Surgeons are greatly valued.
We hope that some of you will see this as a rich opportunity to develop your academic prowess, with our DOP’S fiscal support for your potential project/research.
As an initial step, we are now open to receive a Letter of Intent (LOI), to be provided by the primary applicant/ principal investigator. The LOI might include:
1. The project title;
2. A short descriptor(3-5 paragraphs/ 500-1200 words) describing the intended academic project;
3. Names of any co-collaborators, including residents or learners; and
4. The name and full (e-mail and formal mail) contact information of the principal investigator.
Please note these changes introduced for the 2021 DPAP Awards:
