Our clinical PhD programme, focussed on surgeons-in-training, is central to our research strategy and the future of surgery in the UK, EU, and rest of the world. We take quality over quantity, give a hands on approach, and build future research leaders. We're advertising for 2 new posts to start October 2025, to start tackling: -the intersection of technology and greener healthcare -addressing data driven knowledge gaps to impact on how governments view surgery -generating data and evidence syntheses to impact on pandemic preparedness in surgery -strengthening supply chains around the world, for both environment sustainability and the delivery of minimally invasive surgery in the Global South -reducing deaths after major surgery -trends analysis in surgery edzz.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/…

We are thrilled to welcome Natalie Blencowe and Matt Lee as our new Surgical Specialty Leads (SSL) in Emergency General Surgery (EGS).
