BMFMS Medical Student Prizes

The Medical Student Prizes are awarded to the highest ranking abstracts submitted to the annual conference in each of the four categories (Fetal Medicine, Maternal Medicine, Labour & Delivery, and Pregnancy Outcome).

Applications are accepted from any medical student affiliated to a UK Medical School. The prize winners will be offered free registration at the annual BMFMS conference - where the work will be presented. They will also receive up to £200 towards accommodation and travel.

Applicants should submit their abstract through the conference website, and ensure that they tick the box indicating their eligibility for the medical student prize. The winners will be notified prior to the conference and reimbursed following the conference.

The submitting author must attend and present the work to be eligible for the prize.
