John Snow Silver medal

The John Snow Medal was introduced in 1946 and was originally cast in bronze. In 1967 since this was replaced by a silver medal following the introduction of a bronze medal for the John Snow Lecturer.   The medal bears the arms of the Association on the obverse and the name of the recipient and the date on the reverse.

The first three awards in 1946 were to anaesthetists who had distinguished themselves and received awards for gallantry in World War II (Two OBEs and an MC). One of these was also the Founder President and a second a distinguished academic anaesthetist.

Candidates are anaesthetists who are deemed to have made a major contribution to anaesthesia. Nominations are made and confirmed by Council.
