Women in Surgery Conference 2023
Sunday, 26th November 2023
.
The Women in Surgery conference aims to inspire women to pursue surgery by tackling the gender imbalances in the field demonstrated by the fact that only 14.7% of all UK consultant surgeons are women.
As part of the conference, every year we have a Speed Mentoring Circuit, where we give students the unique, invaluable opportunity to talk to surgeons from a diverse range of specialties and gain insight into what it is like to pursue a surgical career. During this time, you will become mentors for the day while answering questions and giving advice to aspiring surgeons.
We intend to hold this workshop at the University College London Campus on Sunday, 26th November 2023. There will be two sessions – each running for an hour and both will take place during the afternoon session between 1:30pm – 3:30pm.
We would be extremely grateful if you would be able to participate in either one or even both sessions!
Below is the sign up link for the mentoring circuit
In return for your generosity, a certificate will be provided for attending!
Thank you, we greatly appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you there. If you have any questions, feel free to email us at womeninsurgery.ucl@gmail.com.

BTS Monothematic Meeting
.
Friday 3rd November 2023
The Wellcome Trust, London
The BTS are going to hold a joint one day meeting together with NHSBT OTDT examining the role of machine perfusion in liver transplantation.
The use of novel technologies, primarily to increase organ utilisation, but also to facilitate workforce sustainability, equity of access and research interventions will be a major growth area in the coming decade and we want the UK transplant community to be at the forefront. This aspiration has been embodied in the eighth recommendation of the recent OUG report.
This meeting will be an inclusive event to allow all the UK centres to reflect on their own practice and experience, followed by an opportunity to formulate a blueprint for working together going forwards to become a major international force in this arena.
