Description
The Herbert Erik Reiss Memorial Case History Prize is run by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG). It recognises excellence in the presentation of clinical case histories in obstetrics and gynaecology through two prizes for early career doctors.
Named in memory of Herbert Erik Reiss and his contributions to the specialty, the prize encourages critical analysis, comprehensive literature appraisal and insightful clinical reflection. Its focus is on thoughtful examination of a real clinical case, with an emphasis on clinical reasoning and academic inquiry. Assessment considers both the clinical relevance of the case and the author's level of involvement.
