Budding Medics – Neurosurgeon Talk

Budding Medics – Neurosurgeon Talk

On Monday 13 May, budding medics listened to a fantastic talk from consultant neurosurgeon, Mr Nicholas Thomas, who is based at King’s College Hospital London. During the evening, he gave an interesting presentation demonstrating various surgical procedures and his experiences over 25 years. This included: removal of benign or malignant tumours in the brain, scoliosis, surgery on a foetus in the womb and when he did brain surgery on live TV. The talk gave an insight to the immense skill and pressure required to do such important surgery yet how rewarding it is to have a job in the medicine.
