Dear Colleague,
We recently advertised the next wave of posts for takeAIM fellows. We received some excellent applications but we still need more trainees to join the group (please see advert below). For a whole host of reasons takeAIM is vital to the continued growth of our specialty. During my tenure as President, takeAIM has been the project that I have been most proud to work with. The attitude and dedication of the takeAIM fellows has been truly inspirational.
We have extended the closing date for applications. I am hoping that with a new Training and Education Committee structure, which incorporates all the takeAIM fellows, your ability to make a difference will be even greater than it is now.
If you have any questions or wish to chat with a takeAIM fellow, please contact us at administrator@acutemedicine.org.uk and we will put you in contact with someone who can help.
Many thanks,
Mark
Mark Holland
