Professor receives radiography award
Wednesday 2nd June 2010
A professor based in the north-west of England is to become one of only a handful of individuals across the world to receive a prestigious award.
Gill Marshall from the University of Cumbria will be handed a Gold Medal from the Society and College of Radiographers on July 7th.
The accolade was bestowed on her in recognition of her outstanding contribution to the field.
Commenting on the honour, she said: "I never thought I'd achieve this and I would like to thank my nominees and express my gratitude to all who have participated in my research."
Professor Marshall, who is among three other Gold Medal winners, added that she feels "privileged" to work in an area that remains "dynamic and challenging".
In order to be eligible for the award, she had to be supported by ten members of the Society and College of Radiographers - an organisation that has roots tracing back to 1920.
This year's medals coincide with the society's 90th anniversary.
