چکیده
THE Queen's University received a benefaction from Mrs. Carnwath and her family in 1955 to provide prizes in social and preventive medicine in memory of her husband, the late Dr. Thomas Carnwath. These awards originally took the form of a medal and book prize for the student gaining the highest place in the final part one examination in social and preventive medicine, a book prize for the student gaining the next highest place and a medal and book prize for the graduate gaining the highest place in the D.P.H. examination. Medals were first given in July 1956, the undergraduate medal being awarded to Ingrid V. Allen, now professor of neuropathology and the graduate medal to Dr. Peter Froggatt, now Vice Chancellor and President of Queen's University*. Since-the change in title of the Department of Social and Preventive Medicine to the Department of Community Medicine in 1976, the undergraduate medal currently is awarded to the student placed first in community medicine at the end of fourth year and no graduate medals have been given since the D.P.H. course was suspended in July 1972. The latter situation may change now that community physicians are examined by the Faculty of Community Medicine of the Royal College of Physicians of London. This is a brief account of the life and work of Thomas Carnwath (Fig. 1), one of Queen's most distinguished medical graduates.
