Applications are now open for positions on our Committee for the next academic year. No prior experience necessary, just some interest and enthusiasm. To see the available roles and apply, go to https://forms.gle/BBoPx4W5WcsY8qz28.

Applications are due before the start of our AGM, which takes place this coming Monday May 24th at 7pm on MS Teams (all details of which can be found at https://fb.me/e/LtbYL3Fb).

If you have an interest in anaesthesia or intensive care then get involved with the RCSI Anaesthesia & Intensive Care Society for our 2021/22 session. Getting involved is a great way to learn more about the specialties, meet other students with similar interests, meet faculty who work/perform research in these areas and boost your CV.

We held our Day in the Life - North American Residency event recently. We were very lucky to hear from two recent RCSI alumni completing residency programmes in Anaesthesiology, Dr Kristina Kim (McMaster University) and Dr Sarvie Esmaeilzadeh (Mayo Clinic). Thanks to them for their time. Part 2 of the talk will be uploaded separately.

Join us on RCSI Student Life HQ (studentlife.rcsi.com) to ensure you hear about events in the future.
