Bridge building

Thye Anatomy Department is successfully building important clinical links with surgeons and other doctors to combine knowledge and be at the forefront of training these clinicians. For instance, we are training GP's through KUMEC, the very GP's that are teaching our undergraduate medics on the 2020 curriculum. We are also starting a multidisciplinary surgical faculty that will undertake their own training in the anatomy department, e.g. practicing reconstructive techniques, teaching our students in surgical anatomy and offering surgical science projects. Contact me if you want to know more or be involved.

Why Look at the small stuff

I remember when I first wanted to be a doctor. Whilst all medical science interests me, it was always anatomy that was my focus of interest. I bought a light microscope from a shop in Slough and immediately went to work on looking at everything that I could. A still have a microscope on my desk. The subject of histology is a fascinating one; a view in to hidden world, secret gems of structure that not only look wonderful, but reveal and give clues to how structure relates to function. The anatomy department at Kings is still committed to delivering quality histology teaching and so it should. Please contact me if you want to know more. We have excellent histology facilities.
