Overview

Are you interested in exploring what a career in neuropathology or paediatric & perinatal pathology can offer you? Then this is the event for you! Come and join us for this virtual session where you can meet current trainees from both subspecialties, and hear from them about why they chose to enter training, examples of interesting/unusual cases and what you can do next to prepare yourself for the application. You will also have the opportunity to ask our live Q&A panel about any aspects of the job or training that you want! It is an opportunity to make useful contacts who can support your application going forwards. 

Everyone is welcome to join including pathology trainees at any stage of training, foundation doctors or undergraduates who are wanting to know more!

We are aiming to show you why sub-specialisation is a very positive and exciting opportunity in cellular pathology, and what working in neuropathology and paediatric & perinatal pathology can do for you!
