Poster competition

This year’s conference poster competition was on the subject of self-care and drew a wide variety of entries, which explored issues as diverse as Type One Diabetes management and why doctors don’t always practice what they preach.

The winners were Sarah Davis and Eunice J Minford, and is called ‘Healthy Doctor, Healthy Patient: Evaluating the Efficacy of an Online Self-Care Programme.

The runner up was Dr Sarah Anderson et al: Can you sing for better health?
