CCSG Annual Award
The 2023 CCSG annual award is now complete. We encourage everyone to be thinking ahead for next year's award, we would love to see your research, audit or service evaluation projects!
Information about the award
The CCSG annual award is about showcasing the excellent research, audit and service evaluation projects that UK critical care dietitians are involved in. We are particularly interested in novel and innovative projects that have been implemented into clinical practice and shown to improve either patient care or improve the ways that dietitians work in critical care. However, we will accept any research, audit or service evaluation projects.
Each year we invite CCSG members to enter the award, and for 2023 we were delighted to be able to have three awards to offer this year with Nutrinovo continuing to sponsor our first prize. We were really grateful for this sponsorship as it will allow us to expand the award and enable more members to benefit. Thank you to Nutrinovo.
The prizes for the 2023 award were:
- 1st prize: £2000 cash prize
- 2nd prize: £500 towards attendance at a conference of your choice
- Best poster prize: free ticket to the CCSG annual study day 2024
All award presenters are expected to attend the annual study day in person and cover their costs (registration, travel, accommodation).
Up to 8 entries (including the winner and runner up) can automatically be submitted to the BDA research symposium (critical care stream) with the submission cost covered by the CCSG if the author chooses this option. All other submissions can still be eligible for entry into the BDA research symposium at their own cost. The winner and runner up of the CCSG award will not be eligible to win the BDA critical care research stream award, but will have the opportunity to present their work to a wider audience.
All submissions to the BDA research symposium of sufficient quality (as judged by the abstract reviewers) will have their abstracts published in the Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics.
The team answered common questions to help with submissions.
