To celebrate 2014's International Clinical Trials Day, Global Health Trials ran a competition to attend the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene Annual Meeting in Oxford, UK, in September 2014.
Entrants were requested to send in two-minute videos, or photoboards, about their research projects or careers. The entries were shortlisted, and the shortlist sent to a panel of four independent judges, and marked out of five on each of four criteria:
- Content (relevance, scientific interest),
- Engagement (keeping the audience interest),
- Creativity,
- Supporting information/reason for attending.
The judges remarked on the high quality of the entries.
In first place was HENOK NGUSSIE, for his entry about the GOLBET Trial for Podoconiosis in Ethiopia:
In second place was Aaron Karat, for his excellent video about the TB Fast Track Trial in Limpopo:
In third place was the Aresh Naik of Sangath, India:
The judges also gave special commendations to three entries:
Doortje Heemskirk of the OUCRU in Vietnam (View photoboard here)
Nicole Cramer of the University of Cape Town, RSA:
Stella Maria Paddick of the Hai District, Thailand:
Congratulations to all the finalists!
