The course is delivered through a dynamic range of lectures given by leaders in the field, from surgeons and academics alike. Modules covered include introduction to research methods, core and specialist principles of surgery and surgical technology, which will add focus on the modernisation of surgical practice through innovative technology such as robotic and laparoscopic surgery. The course will feature heavily on practical aspects of surgery and hands on experience. Technical skills sessions will be held at the Olympus Simulation Centre at Guy’s Hospital and Weston Education Centre at King’s College Hospital, where you will have access to the latest simulation technology in surgery. There will be opportunities to observe live surgery, including robot-assisted, and enjoy operating theaters and surgical simulation environments. Aside from the technical aspects of surgery, we aim to provide you with an overview of non-technical skills such as communication, team working and surgical decision making, leadership and management.

  • John Keats 1 John Keats
    John Keats 1 John Keats John Keats Portrait of John Keats by William Hilton. National Portrait Gallery, London Born 31 October 1795 Moorgate, London, England Died 23 February 1821 (aged 25) Rome, Italy Occupation Poet Alma mater King's College London Literary movement Romanticism John Keats (/ˈkiːts/; 31 October 1795 – 23 February 1821) was an English Romantic poet. He was one of the main figures of the second generation of Romantic poets along with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley, despite his work only having been in publication for four years before his death.[1] Although his poems were not generally well received by critics during his life, his reputation grew after his death, so that by the end of the 19th century he had become one of the most beloved of all English poets. He had a significant influence on a diverse range of poets and writers. Jorge Luis Borges stated that his first encounter with Keats was the most significant literary experience of his life.[2] The poetry of Keats is characterised by sensual imagery, most notably in the series of odes. Today his poems and letters are some of the most popular and most analysed in English literature. Biography Early life John Keats was born in Moorgate, London, on 31 October 1795, to Thomas and Frances Jennings Keats. There is no clear evidence of his exact birthplace.[3] Although Keats and his family seem to have marked his birthday on 29 October, baptism records give the date as the 31st.[4] He was the eldest of four surviving children; his younger siblings were George (1797–1841), Thomas (1799–1818), and Frances Mary "Fanny" (1803–1889) who eventually married Spanish author Valentín Llanos Gutiérrez.[5] Another son was lost in infancy.

It has been postulated that virtual reality (VR) simulators may aid the progression along the learning curve for this rapidly developing surgical technique within a safe training environment. There are several simulators available on the market, the best known is that developed by Intuitive Surgical Inc. • The present study provides the first systematic review of all the trails of the various VR robotic platforms. It explores the evidence supporting the effectiveness of the various platforms for feasibility, reliability, validity, acceptability, educational impact and cost-effectiveness. This article also highlights the deficiencies and future work required to advance robotic surgical training. To analyse studies validating the effectiveness of robotic content and construct validity.
