Surrey nutrition expert awarded 2025 Nutrition Society Silver Medal
Dr Sarah Bath, senior lecturer in public health nutrition at the University of Surrey, has been awarded the 2025 Silver Medal by The Nutrition Society for scientific excellence in the field of nutrition. Only one Silver Medal is awarded each year to outstanding scientists for their contribution to the field.
Dr Bath delivered the annual Silver Medal lecture at The Nutrition Society Summer Conference in Loughborough entitled ‘Iodine deficiency in the UK – should we take it with a pinch of salt?’. This covered the research on iodine that Sarah has worked on since completing her PhD at Surrey in 2012. The Silver Medal is awarded to scientists for their work within 15 years of higher degree education.
Dr Bath teaches at undergraduate and postgraduate level at the University of Surrey and is programme director for the Nutritional Medicine MSc.
