Celebrating 10 years of Buckingham’s Medical School
‘Scalpel to Self’ is a national student-led conference hosted for the 10th anniversary of the MB ChB programme run by The University of Buckingham Medical School, focused on exploring the journey from surgical skill to self-awareness and professional identity. This event is open to current medical students in the UK.
Through the mix of keynote talks, hands-on workshops, and student-led research, the event brings together future doctors to engage with surgery, ethics, mental health, and career development.
This year’s theme highlights not only the technical demands of a surgical career but also the emotional, ethical, and psychological dimensions that shape life in medicine.
