Fellows should send a 300 word statement with details of the achievements of the Fellow that they would like to nominate for the medal. It is intended to be awarded to someone for “the greatest benefit done to Practical Medicine”. As such the individual is likely to already be of relatively high profile but all nominations will be considered.
