Debate Chamber

Young Doctors Summer School

18th-20th August 2012 • University of London Union • Ages 11-14

The Young Doctors Summer School offers an introduction to the world of medicine, covering a range of medical topics including: dealing with patients, radiology, medical ethics, haemotology, cardiovascular and pulmonary systems, suturing skills, dissection and neurology.

The Young Doctors Summer School is structured so that more academic sessions are interspersed with fun and enjoyable activities which are designed to test and apply the theoretical knowledge gained. Students will take part in practical activities, like learning how to suture a wound and in role play and case study scenarios, where they take the role of practitioners and consultants – diagnosing and recommending treatment options. There will also be experiments, group work and quizzes on each day.

A full schedule of the topics covered is available here.
