RCPsych in Scotland Research Prize
Each year the College in Scotland gives a cash
incentive to encourage trainees and newly appointed consultants to
publish papers. The prize is given for a paper published in a
Peer Reviewed journal. The prize is normally advertised from
November each year with a closing date of end of March and the
prize is then awarded at the Summer meeting each year in
May/June.
Papers are judged by a panel established by
the RCPsych in Scotland and will include officers and a Professor
of Psychiatry. The winner will be expected to present their work at
a future meeting of the RCPsych in Scotland.
The prize is normally £500.
