Description
Welcome to SCRUBS, the University of Bristol's official Surgical Society! As a society, our aim is to inspire medical students to pursue a career in surgery by creating a welcoming and open atmosphere to explore it further. Our events throughout the year help provide information, develop skills, and network with other medical students, and surgeons!
Events you can look forward to:
- Suturing Workshops
- Learn and practice your suturing skills, develop your dexterity and ability to do multiple types of sutures!
- We have a few of these a year, with some taught by Y4/5 students, and others by qualified doctors/surgeons.
- These are usually really popular and sell out super quick so stay tuned for tickets!
- Battle of the Surgeons
- One of our biggest events!
- Every year, surgeons from various specialties battle it out to decide which specialty is the best!
- YOU get to vote based on their presentations!
- Drinks and snacks available!
- Surgical Skills Day
- A big day of learning specialist surgical techniques from people at the top of their fields!
- In 2025 we had laparoscopic simulations and VR surgical training and more!
- Talks and Webinars
- We collaborate with many other Galenicals' sub-societies to hold talks from professionals!
- These are to provide more information to you about a career in a particular surgical specialty.
- South West Surgical Conference
- This is a collaborative conference that brings together medical students from Exeter, Plymouth, Cardiff, Bristol, and beyond!
- It encourages practicing presentation skills and networking!
Luckily for you this isn't an exhaustive list - there is plenty more going on at SCRUBS! If you just want a bit more information about pursuing a surgical career, or you're ready to get stuck in straight away, SCRUBS is the place for you!
