I am an internal medicine trainee (IMT) in the north-east about to enter my third year of training. Following this I hope to enter respiratory medicine for my higher specialty training. I am interested in the continual improvement of medical training and I am currently the IMT representative for the School of Medicine Training Committee in Northern Deanery. I also have an interest in medical education having previously been a teaching fellow and I have completed the PGCert in medical education, as well as being in the process of training to become an ALS instructor.

I am a gastroenterology registrar working in the South West of England, having graduated from Glasgow medical school in 2013, undertaken foundation training in Bristol, taking time out to complete a tropical medicine diploma in Berlin and work in Sierra Leone, before returning to Scotland (Edinburgh this time) for ACCS acute medicine.
