The First Year On-Call Echocardiography Scholarship
BSE Level 1 Aligned
On our first anniversary, we are proud to announce the ten clinicians awarded a fully sponsored place on the First Year programme.
Personally endorsed by
Professor Rick Steeds · former President, British Society of Echocardiography
Why this scholarship exists
The scholarship was created for clinicians who carry acute and on-call responsibility and know that echocardiography could help, but who have not yet had the structure, repetition and guidance to use it with confidence. Every application was read personally by Dr Mansour. Selection considered clinical role, the story each applicant shared, and the difference this training could make to their practice and their patients.
I created this scholarship for clinicians who look after acutely unwell patients and know that echocardiography could help, but have not yet had the structure, repetition or guidance to use it with confidence.
The aim is simple: to give early learners a clearer framework for acute and on-call echo practice, so they can recognise the findings that matter, understand the limits of what they are seeing, and approach clinical decisions with more clarity.
Not to create echo experts overnight. To give people a better start when the clinical moment matters.

Founder, EchoMasters
EchoMasters has built a thoughtful, structured pathway for clinicians beginning their echocardiography journey. Aligned with BSE Level 1 standards and delivered with the rigour I would expect from any serious training programme, the First Year On-Call Echocardiography Scholarship is exactly the kind of initiative our community needs more of, supporting frontline clinicians at the stage where good foundations matter most.
