Wessex Medical Education Conference

Since 2005, Wessex Medical Education Fellows have organised and hosted an annual conference to showcase medical education within the region and from further afield. We are delighted that this conference is now nationally recognised. We invite medical students and doctors from across the United Kingdom to submit work for presentation and join us at the conference.
