🫶 Shivani is no stranger to a School Prize! She’s picked up awards in a number of categories throughout her time with us. Let’s just say, we have looked forward to catching up with her family at our annual prize evening.
🏆 Last year’s win was for the Shaun Jackson Prize for Clinical Anatomy for her presentation ‘Acute angle closure Glaucoma - Anatomy behind the emergency’, commended by judges for its excellent explanation of anatomical risk factors, the clear linkage between symptoms and their anatomical basis and a brilliant quiz to consolidate learning.
🗨️ “I was inspired by a Glaucoma clinic on clinical placement at Arrowe Park. I feel like my anatomy around the eye was pretty poor, but the consultant was really helpful and helped me understand me build an understanding, together with my own research, which I then put into this resource to help others learn about the condition.
💡 “You might think submitting to a prize takes up a lot of time and energy, but in my experience it’s a great way to revise and helps you prepare for your exams. I would say keep an eye out on placement, on your ward rounds and patient interactions for interesting cases or symptoms that you can then look into and ask the doctors about. Try to challenge yourself and go out the way for your own learning, and don’t forget to have fun with it!”
🔗 This prize is open to student doctors in years 3-5 with entries closing on 5 June. See the link in our Stories for full details and get to work on an entry that might get you on the School Prize Leaderboard!
