Congratulations to Sarah Onida (Clinical Research Fellow in Vascular Surgery) who after winning the first prize at the 6th Venous Symposium in April has now won the Pump Priming Grant at the Royal Society of Medicine Venous Forum Annual Spring Meeting.
The prize gives a grant of £5000 to allow a researcher to get preliminary data to support research in venous disease/phlebology. It is an annual award granted by the Royal Society of Medicine to a single trainee each year and is open to vascular trainee specialists under 40 years of age. The results of the research must then be presented at the next RSM annual spring meeting.
