Brief Description:

Following the success of its last national conference in March 2016, Glasgow University Paediatrics Society is pleased to announce its 3rd National Undergraduate Paediatrics Conference.This will be held on 19th November 2016 at the Sir Charles Wilson Lecture Theatre, University of Glasgow.

This year the conference will focus on a range of paediatric specialities, offering students a diverse and varied view of paediatrics. There will also be a number of talks on ‘Current Issues in Paediatrics’. The day will take the form of a series of lectures from leading paediatric specialists and an afternoon of workshop sessions, including practical skills sessions and a paediatric careers and CV workshop.

With paediatric specialist training posts commonly over-subscribed, evidence of a commitment to paediatric medicine from an early career stage is becoming more important. This conference provides the perfect opportunity to gain exposure to paediatrics and to present research at a national level. Please see details on abstract submission above. There will be a number of poster presentations to showcase medical student research in the field of paediatrics.

The conference is open to all medical students across the UK, with our overall aim to provide an insight into the field of Paediatrics.

Ticket Price: £12.00 (until 23:59 GMT on Saturday 5^th November); £15.00 (after 00:00 GMT on Sunday 6^th November)
