The BSBMTCT ACCEA , now re-named National Clinical Impact Awards (NCIAs) subcommittee was formed in August 2008 to support BSBMTCT members making applications for national clinical excellence awards. This process enables the BSBMTCT to recognise, in an appropriate way, the contributions of haematologists and transplant physicians who have furthered the cause of stem cell transplantation in the UK and have promoted the work of the BSBMTCT.
BSBMTCT NCIA SC Communication from Chair, Prof. Gordon Cook – 17th March 2023
Dear Colleagues,
You will have heard that the ACCIA have decided that Membership Organisations such as the BSBMTCT are no longer able to provide citation support from 2023. The BSBMTCT are however still able to provide support and offer guidance on the application process from an unlimited number of applicants. Applicants are also able to approach as many of these Membership Organisations as the wish.
This is the guidance from the ACCIA:
From March 2023, National Clinical Impact Awards (NCIA) scheme applications will no longer include rankings and citations from national nominating organisations.
Applicants will now be able to seek guidance from any number of relevant membership organisations (MOs) they wish to approach.
MOs may review draft applications, providing pointers and advice, but must not edit or critique the text directly, as the application must be written solely by the applicant. The Advisory Committee on Clinical Impact Awards (ACCIA) will use standard academic software to assess applications to detect plagiarism or repetition.
More information can be found at the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/the-2023-national-clinical-impact-awards-round-is-now-open
The 2023 round has opened on the 10th March and closes on 5pm the 5th May 2023.
The BSBMTCT NCIA Sub Committee are therefore inviting anyone that wishes to receive guidance on the ACCIA process to contact Julia.lee@kcl.ac.uk who will coordinate the process.
With Best Wishes,
Professor Gordon Cook, Chair of BSBMTCT NCIA Sub Committee
