Dan Bader Memorial Award

The Society of Tissue Viability opens a new call for proposals for the Dan Bader Memorial Award. Dan Bader was an integral part of the Society of Tissue Viability for many years including being Editor of the Journal of Tissue Viability from 2011 to 2022, the year of his passing. He is greatly missed and the Society was keen to set up this award in his memory.

This award is open to registered clinicians and support workers within the UK who wish to drive innovative programmes of work (within the field of Tissue Viability), in order to improve human life, health and wellbeing.

Research award
