Reports and College Activities be the weaknesses and strengths of the NHS and its long-term plan. We thank our speakers for making the evening that much more enjoyable and interesting. During the dinner, we were also able to announce the winners of the first Chowdhury-Johnson Prize in Medicine, an essay competition for medical students which will be held again next Michaelmas term. Overall, the QCMS dinner was a great success. The QCMS dinner in Michaelmas In Hilary, we held the first ever QCMS Medical Innovation Conference, hosting speakers Justin Hean, a Principal Scientist at Evox Therapeutics, Dr Krishan Ramdoo, an NHS England Clinical Entrepreneur and CEO of TympaHealth, and medical students Iain Broadley and Ally Jaffee who are co-founders of Nutritank. We also heard from Professor Shafi Ahmed, a laparoscopic cancer surgeon and renowned healthcare innovator and Professor Elizabeth Molyneux, a paediatrician and founding member of the WHO course on Emergency Triage, Assessment and Treatment. We thank all those who attended the conference and our speakers for delivering such fascinating and inspiring talks. We hope the QCMS conference will become an annual event. I have thoroughly enjoyed my year as President of QCMS and would like to wholeheartedly thank Esme Weeks and Zahra Choudhury for their support as Vice-President and Treasurer of the Society. I am very proud of what we have been able to deliver and achieve as a team. We look forward to next year with the newly elected committee: Yedidiah Tilahun, Elfie Baker and Becky Howitt who will be taking over as President, Vice-President and Treasurer respectively. 2020 has so far been a very significant year in Medicine and we believe that now, more than ever, is the time for us to keep up to date with happenings in the field and so it is important for QCMS to continue to come together with our shared interests in Medical and Biomedical Sciences. NETBALL Captains: Angharad Kellet and Jessica Martin QCNC started off the year optimistically after recruiting many new members, including males as we could now field a mixed team – one positive to come out of the disappointment of being relegated to division two the previous year. With many fresh faces to the game and the regularity of being able to take seven players plus subs (many thanks to next year’s captain, Pandora Mackenzie, who roped freshers in at the last minute), we thought we were on to top the leader board. However, within the rapid eight-minute halves, it turns out sporting a team where half of you haven’t ever stepped foot on a netball court before isn’t always a success! Despite this, we always showed up with enthusiasm after cycling ten minutes to Lady Margaret Hall to play 78 The Queen’s College | College Record 2020
netball for only 20 minutes, typically in the rain. Although a couple of matches were played in a downpour after spending a morning convincing the other team it wasn’t meant to rain and we should play, we had a whole lot of fun and with some very talented players it resulted in some great wins for QCNC. Reports and College Activities In Michaelmas, we saw only one win, over Oriel (12-7), placing us seventh in our division. However, in Hilary we crept up a place in the table to sixth with two huge wins – one over Lincoln (9-1) and the other LMH (8-2) – and another closer victory against Christ Church (12-8). These wins never went unacknowledged by Harri Kellett, who would always rush to write them on the chalkboard outside the Porters’ Lodge. Our Hilary fixtures saw an improvement on the Michaelmas record, consolidating QCNC’s new recruits and playing some great netball. We finished in a very respectable midleague position, retaining our division 2 status. It’s been a great year and we both look forward to seeing what QCNC gets up to in 2020-21. The club would also like to pay homage to outgoing members Jessica Martin, Elizabeth Whitney and Pip Monk for their dedication. QCRFC Captain: Wilf Sandwell I would call the QCRFC season of 2019-20 a success in all the most important ways, meaning in anything but results. A large fresher intake was a very welcome bonus at the beginning of the season, but it didn’t translate into results with a first score of 81-7 to the Brookes 4 th XV, our only try being scored by a player they lent us. It was a laughable and fitting introduction to our new players that Queen’s rugby is thankfully College Record 2020 | The Queen’s College 79
