Fellowship of Postgraduate Medicine

[1][2] It was founded in late 1918 as the Inter-allied Fellowship of Medicine with Sir William Osler as its president.

[3] In the autumn of 1919, Osler merged the IAFM with the Postgraduate Medical Association[4] of which he had been the founding President since 1911.

[7] The fellowship is supported by national and international fellows with expertise in the practice of medicine, medical education, clinical research, and related disciplines.

The fellowship aims to achieve its objectives through publications, organising educational meetings and supporting other relevant activities.

The fellowship has provided major support for the International Hippocrates Prize for Poetry and Medicine.
