@TASanatomy Thank you for a fantastic day. I’m officially inspired to enjoy anatomy beyond the daily grind, and to pick up a pencil and start drawing!

@Salma_Khatun100 @PPJSucharitkul Thank you for furthering this discussion Salma, and thank you for your contributions to our transparency in costings talk on Saturday! Our committee is definitely looking to take the topic further, so I will signpost this to our relevant committee members

@PPJSucharitkul Hi @PPJSucharitkul, Y'day I was at the @TASanatomy conference and they discussed transparency in costings for surgical courses. I was impressed with the work that they are doing and looking to do.

Does anyone know anyone senior from the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh? I want to talk to them about the #LiveableNHSBursary Campaign! Also a budding WP surgeon. Please could someone introduce me?

The best society mascot in the business

Thank you once again to all of our speakers, presenters, and attendees for making our 10th National Anatomy Conference a great success! #TASconference

@MStott88 We 100% agree that anatomy should be central to both med school and post-grad training! It’s core knowledge at all levels, not just for those following a surgical path. Additionally, it might even be better studied at later stages of training - not just in pre-clinical years.

When I went through medical school, there was this trend that “anatomy was a postgrad subject for those wanting to do surgery”. With POCUS and increasing medical interventions is there a need for it to take a central place on the curriculum again?

Also a massive thank you to our other sponsors @Teachmeanatomy @Kenhub @rcpsglasgow and @HEINEOpto
