Our Society is dedicated to recognising excellence, celebrating achievements and inspiring future advancements in our discipline. We aim to ensure that all members have the opportunity to be acknowledged, to share their successes, and to celebrate them within our community.

In 2023, as part of the Society’s commitment to better represent and support more of our members, we established a working group to review the full portfolio of our awards and prizes. Led by Professor Julia Buckingham, the group was tasked with reimagining the awards to celebrate a broader range of member achievements. The group also reviewed the processes for application, nomination, review and selection, to ensure that these are welcoming, inclusive, transparent and fair.

INTRODUCING A NEW PROGRAMME OF AWARDS AND PRIZES

Following careful review by the working group, we have now relaunched our programme of awards and prizes to better showcase the incredible diversity of talent across endocrinology. Alongside these changes, the Nominations Committee will also be transformed into a new Awards and Prizes Committee, which will include up to 16 members from across the Society. Individuals from all member types and career stages are welcome to judge the applications and nominations for this new portfolio.

We are currently welcoming applications for the following awards:

• Dale Medal for Lifetime Achievement
• Mid-Career Medal for Research Excellence
• Early Career Medal for Research Excellence
• Outstanding Contribution Medal
• Nikki Kieffer Medal
• Excellence in Clinical Service Delivery
• Outstanding Clinical Practitioner
• Outstanding Teacher of the Year

Submit your applications by 12 January 2025.

To find out all the details for these awards, including eligibility and criteria, visit www.endocrinology.org/grants-and-awards.

From 2025 onwards, we will be introducing further awards, including Team Science, Outstanding Specialist Technologist Working in Endocrinology, and the International Endocrinology Development Award.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO HELP MARK AND SELECT OUR AWARDEES?

Applications for these awards and prizes will be marked by the newly formed Awards and Prizes Committee. We are still looking for additional committee members, at any career stage. The committee will carry out marking from the end of January each year, and participate in a selection meeting in the spring.

Apply to be on the committee.
