RCVS awards 31 new Fellowships
The Fellows will be welcomed at RCVS Fellowship Day in November.
Successful applicants include Dr Niall Connell and Dr Rachel Dean.

The RCVS has awarded 31 new Fellowships to veterinary surgeons in recognition of their contributions to the profession.

Among the new Fellows include Dr Niall Connell, awarded Fellowship for Meritorious Contributions to the Profession, and Dr Rachel Dean, awarded Fellowship for Meritorius Contributions to Clinical Practice. Fifteen successful applicants this year were women, while 16 were men.

The College will formally welcome the Fellows at RCVS Fellowship Day, which is taking place 11 November at the Royal Institution.

Professor John Innes, chair of the Fellowship Board, commented: “It was again an honour to personally write to this year’s successful fellowship applicants and to welcome them to our learned society. The standard of applications this year continues to illustrate the enormous contribution that fellows make to our profession. I send each and every one of them my warmest congratulations on this wonderful achievement.

“I am also pleased that we have been able to maintain the success of the previous year’s efforts to increase the diversity of the Fellowship with regards to gender, attaining a broadly even gender split this year. Going forward our intention is to look at ways we can encourage applications from other under-represented groups.”

He added: “I look forward to the opportunity to meet all our successful applicants at the upcoming Fellowship Day. This promises to be an especially exciting occasion, not only being the first time in three years since we have been able to host Fellowship Day in person, but also bringing together all those awarded a Fellowship from 2020 to 2022.”

A list of the new Fellows is available on the RCVS website.
