The British Society of Audiology is pleased to announce the following members have received awards. They will be presented at the forthcoming Annual Conference Dinner in Manchester on Thursday, 9th September 2010.
Thomas Simm Littler Prize
Dr Robert P Carlyon - for contributions to the basic understanding of mechanisms of hearing for normally hearing people, people with hearing loss, and people with cochlear implants.
Jos Millar Shield
Debbie Phillis (nee Fife) - for her article What benefits does a customised vestibular rehabilitation service offer over a set Cawthorne-Cooksey programme of exercise? – A service audit BSA News December 2009
Ruth Spencer Prize
Helen Pryce - in recognition of the great contribution she has made to audiology in setting up and running the Adult Audiological Rehabilitation MSc at Bristol University. This is the only course of its kind in the UK, and as such it ensures that people with advanced rehabilitation and counselling skills continue to form part of the audiology workforce, even though the hearing therapy training route is no longer available. The Centre for Hearing and Balance studies at Bristol University is small, and staff thinly spread. Helen put a great deal of work into the development of the MSc on her own, and it is largely thanks to hear dedication and commitment that it has become a successful and popular academic course today.
George Harris Award
Josephine Marriage - for contributions to clinical aspects of paediatric amplification
Denzil Brooks Trophy
Anne Davies - for promoting excellence in audiological practice and clinical leadership through organisation of ‘Steering a True Course’.
Honorary Life Membership
Bruce Rowe, Dr Sally Hind and Pauline Beesley |
