Category: Contributions to Surgery
In 1968, Henry Joseph Windsor founded an annual award "for some contribution to surgery".
Henry Windsor was a formative influence on generations of surgeons in Queensland. Following his retirement from operative practice, he continued as a consultant, working right up to three days before his death at the age of 91 years.
In a pre-determined order, each nomination is made through the Chair of the State or Regional Committee to appoint a visiting surgeon or scientist from another State or Region to attend and contribute to its Annual or other General Meeting of Fellows. The State or Regional Committee will submit nominations in the following order: Queensland, New South Wales, Western Australia, Aotearoa New Zealand, Victoria, South Australia, and Tasmania.
The nominee shall be selected by the State or Regional Committee on account of that person's contribution to surgery or surgical teaching and the Appointee shall be styled “The Henry Windsor Visiting Lecturer”.
The nomination will be discussed at an Awards Committee meeting (February / June / October) and the President will advise the successful recipient of the Henry Windsor Lectureship following the Council meeting.
