The Oley Foundation is pleased to announce the Nutrishare HomeTPN Research Prize. Sponsored by Nutrishare, Inc., the prize has been established to encourage clinical studies focused on improving the quality of life for home parenteral nutrition consumers.

1. Each year, the Oley Foundation will award $2,500 for each of the top three clinical papers dedicated to helping parenteral nutrition consumers at the Foundation’s national consumer/clinician conference. Part of each prize ($1,000) will be used to cover travel expenses to bring the winning recipients to the Oley conference to present their research.

2. The awards will be written to the principle author, who must apply  to the Oley Foundation for the award.

3. The winning papers will not be reprinted (just the title will be acknowledged), but must have been accepted for poster presentation, standup presentation or publication by a respected, relevant professional association such as: A.S.P.E.N., ESPEN, INS, AGA, etc.

4. The Oley Foundation will consider papers given July 2006 or later for awards given at the 2008 Oley Consumer/Clinician Conference.

5. The Deadline for Applications has been extended to April 1, 2008.
