ASME is delighted to announce the ASME/GMC Excellent Medical Education Award winners for 2022.
The “Excellent Medical Education” Programme is a set of national prizes established jointly by ASME and the GMC and are intended to fund high-quality medical education research, development and innovation.
ASME and the GMC welcome applications on a wide range of issues across the continuum of medical education. Three awards are available across the two categories of undergraduate and postgraduate/continuing professional development.
The programme is intended to support research which is related to the innovation, development, implementation and sustainability of excellent medical education which has an impact at either the individual (medical students, doctors in training, SAS doctors and consultants, and/or patients) or systems level (e.g. informing or leading to organisational change).
Applications up to the value of £5,000 and up to 12 months in duration will be considered.
Please note FEC, HEI and NHS Indirect Costs, and NHS Treatment costs will not be supported.

This grant will be used to explore the factors which experienced GPs take into account when making triage decisions. The results will be used to inform the design of a tactical decision game to teach triage decision-making skills for GP Specialty Trainees.”
