The lectures are aimed at summarising the evidence base for everyday oncological management and the clinical sessions in groups of about 6 reflect the current clinical topics that may arise in the part 2 FRCR exam.

The course is highly recommended for trainees in clinical and medical oncology, associate specialists and staff doctors. Consultants requiring a general refresher would find the course extremely useful and specialist nurses may consider attending for a particular day.

All are welcome. Most of our delegates come from the UK and Ireland but we are pleased to have had visitors from Hong Kong, Barbados, Mauritius in recent years.

The course directors are Dr Janet Ironside, Dr Tamasin Evans and Professor Ian Kunkler, Consultant Clinical Oncologists and Dr Lesley Dawson, Consultant Medical Oncologist , all based at The Edinburgh Cancer Centre.
