Trainee doctor is a Health Education England winner

Health Education England (HEE) has funded nine projects led by trainee doctors to help improve their education and training, and as a result, patient care. From apps and educational sessions, to databases mentoring, the nine winning projects either have a local focus that can be adopted across the country, or impact on the role of the trainee at a national level.
