The Yogi Memorial Prize
Wednesday 9th April 2025
The Yogi Memorial Prize is open to all who work in child health in our region (apart from Consultants), e.g. nurses, NMAHPs, pharmacists, resident doctors, practitioners, students, ancillary staff, etc.
Abstracts are invited that report the findings of any audit, quality improvement or research project that are of relevance to child health. The overarching ethos is to stimulate discussion of important topics and to support less experienced entrants in presenting their work. The Yogi Memorial Prize is unique in this and if submitted sufficiently in advance of the deadline then applicants will be supported by the organising committee in constructively developing their abstracts in advance of final submission.
A team of judges will then independently and anonymously score abstracts with the highest scoring finalists selected for oral presentation at The Yogi Memorial Prize event in April 2025.
The winner will receive a cash prize and shield.
Please see attached abstract rules and poster for further information.
If there are any questions please contact: nuth.cher-2@nhs.net

Structure
Sessions are organised weekly to cover a fixed curriculum shared below. Our faculty is quite diverse, including colleagues from the UK, France, Middle East, Canada, and India. The material can be accessed online on the site, watched by video live, or in your own time.
Commitment
The commitment is 60-90 minutes a week for the course period, which will be on a scheduled day of the week that will be sent by 1st week of March. If you cannot attend the live sessions, then the topic will be shared with you online for your review.
Each session will include time for you to share your cases for online critique, and this is held after the teaching is complete. We will supply you with a logbook to keep your images if you would like.
Fee
The course fee is 500 pounds in the UK, 500 Euros for any EU participants, 1500 AED in UAE. There are limited discounted places from LMIC candidates. Please get in touch and we will guide you. Payment is via bank transfer.
MCQ and Accreditation
For those of you who would like certification and accreditation via the course, it is mandatory that you have access to a US machine and can share cases and images in an anonymised way. We will teach you how to do that. At the end of the course, you must give an online exam with a passing mark, which will review the three core parts of the curriculum as outlined above. The testing can be done anytime within the first six months after the module starts.
