There have been several high profile cases of fatal anaphylactic reactions in the last three years. In order to prevent these from happening we need to learn from these tragic events, increase awareness of the risk factors for fatal anaphylaxis and optimise treatment strategies. The RSM Allergy and Clinical Immunology Section is bringing together leading experts in the management of anaphylaxis in both adults and children to provide a comprehensive overview of this topic.
Topics include:
Clinical Immunology and Allergy: Presidents Prize
1st prize: £300
2nd prize: two prizes of £100
Submissions close: Submissions have now closed
Open to: Training grade doctors, young scientists and medical students (not above Specialist Registrar, Grade B Clinical Scientist or equivalent grade) with an immunological or allergy component of their clinical research.
Submission process: The work to be presented must be original and substantially the candidate's own. Abstracts (not exceeding 250 words) should be submitted along with a supporting letter from a supervisor. The entrant who submits the winning abstract will be asked to prepare a 10 minute presentation.
Regulation: Candidates will be expected to present their work at the 'AGM Presidential prize meeting and state of the art lecture'.
