In this issue we hear from medical student prize winners and RCPCH &Us. We also get 'Powered up', discussing how to tackle health inequalities with actions and take a look at life post-CCT from three past trainees.
Building belonging: it's time to embrace our differences
In her most recent blog, Dinwoodie RCPCH fellow, Dr Jess Morgan, considers how we can start "crafting spaces where people feel comfortable enough to be their authentic selves".
We launched our two-level paediatric training programme last August. Whether you're a trainer or trainee, take a moment to reflect and celebrate your achievements #ProgressPlus

Babies and young children who are not protected via the maternal pertussis vaccine or received three doses of their own 6-in-1 vaccine are at risk of severe disease. Can you display our poster in your heath setting?

As RCPCH President, Steve shares regular updates with members by email and on this website - such as his regular feature on #WDYCD4Y: What Does Your College Do For You.

British Skin Foundation - Young Investigator Award [CLOSED]
A BSF Young Investigator Award is available to anybody wishing to carry out UK- or Republic of Ireland-based research into skin diseases. The aim of the award is to support high-quality research likely to lead to long-term, large-scale funding from a major medical research sponsor such as a funding council or medical charity.
In memory of Dr Donald Paterson, we offer this award to one individual for the best published paper in paediatrics from the last two years. We hear from the Paterson family and we speak to Tom about his winning publication and its importance for child health.
These awards are aimed at researchers in the early years of running their own groups, for whom receipt of the prize would make a significant difference to their research work. The Institute accepts applications from tenured and non-tenured researchers, clinicians and non-clinicians to undertake high quality biomedical research and has no priority diseases or restrictions on the research area supported.
