ICSM Trauma Conference 2008

The Surgical Society at Imperial College School of Medicine (ICSM) is proud to present Trauma Conference 2008 - a National Conference on Trauma Medicine for medical students. Now in its third successful year, this year's conference is taking place on the 8th-9th November 2008 at the Sir Alexander Fleming Building, South Kensington Campus, London, SW7 2AZ.

The aim of the Trauma Conference 2008 is to provide over 200 medical students from across the United Kingdom and Europe with the opportunity to gain unrivalled teaching in the extremely popular field of Trauma Medicine/Surgery. Our highly dedicated Surgical Society Committee has worked very hard to put together a comprehensive weekend timetable which covers all major aspects of Trauma Management as outlined in the most recent edition of the American Trauma Life Support (ATLS) 2004 guidelines.

The programme includes both lecture and practical-based teaching. Practicals serve to consolidate students' knowledge from lectures and give attendees the unique opportunity to strengthen key practical skills. All lectures and practical sessions will be instructed by high-ranking medical staff from Imperial College teaching hospitals, including the renowned St Mary's and Charing Cross Hospitals.

Ticket sales begin on the 1st August 2008 with limited places.
