Some of our staff have scooped awards at this year’s Hull York Medical School (HYMS) Teaching Excellence Awards.
The full list of nominees, and details about the criteria for the different categories can be found on the HYMS website. The awards are for those staff who have inspired, supported, and had a positive impact on students lives and education.
Our Chief Medical Officer, Dr Kate Wood, said: “I want to say a huge thank you and congratulations to all our staff who have been nominated, as well as those who were winners, at this annual event which recognises the outstanding contribution from people in training medics of the future.
“What makes these awards so special is the nominees and winners are submitted and chosen by the HYMS students themselves. It was fantastic to hear how our staff here at NLaG are supporting and inspiring the next generation of doctors.”
Below are our winners, with some of the comments from the students’ who nominated them:
