To date, there have been 26 recipients of the award, who are held in the highest esteem across a range of healthcare professions, from Professor Niamh Nic Daeid, Director of the Leverhulme Research Centre for Forensic Science to Dr Ben LaBrot, Founder of the Floating Doctors.

Speaking at the launch of the new sponsorship, Professor Cathal Kelly, Vice-Chancellor, RCSI said, “The RCSI Alumni Awards sponsored by FRS Recruitment acknowledge RCSI alumni, whose exemplary accomplishments and contributions as global healthcare professionals, are leading the world to better health.
