Description

Our next internal medicine specialty is endocrinology; our first talk will be given by Ameera Enayathullahkhan, a third year medical student at Queen's University Belfast, during which she will cover endocrine conditions that commonly arise in the UKMLA including adrenal and pituitary pathologies. The case-led session should provide students with an opportunity to test and expand on their knowledge.

Enhance your understanding and clinical management of conditions like Addison's disease, Cushing's syndrome, and pituitary tumors.

This is a must-attend for anyone looking to build upon their current knowledge of endocrinology or those keen on keeping up with the latest developments in this field.
