Among the winners were :

Dr Tim Young, Course Co-Director of Clinical Neurology by Distance Learning at 香港六合彩中特网 Queen Square Institute of Neurology (ION), winner of the 鈥楨ducation Success for all鈥� Provost Education Award

Dr Young won the award for excelling in his role over the last year of Covid-19. He has utilised his own experience in distance learning and passion for teaching to empower both students and educators. His educational reach has extended from important Institutional input with the major new ION Mark sheet to ION-wide recommendations for lecturers. Regionally he played a significant role in preparing critical care educators across London for the Covid-19 鈥榮econd wave鈥� and built on this with national level contributions of educational tools for trainees via Health Education England.

At a national level, Dr Young has enhanced Advance HE鈥檚 support for student participation in the 2021 PTES. Internationally he has shown effective education for large companies and in support of medical schools in developing countries. Finally on a global scale, Dr Young has seized the opportunity to work closely with two global specialist medical societies to ascertain the educational needs of developing nations and then address this with his major current project for non-specialist doctors globally. Moreover, he has fulfilled his doctor鈥檚 role for the country against the pandemic, initially at the NHS Nightingale, then performing remote neurology clinics, and most recently as a doctor vaccinator.
