Branching out from internal medicine specialties, we are expanding our lecture series to cover a range of other specialties which are assessed in the UKMLA. The next of these talks is given by Sarindie Katugaha, one of our final year medical student's here at Queen's University Belfast, where she will give an in depth overview of psychiatry. She will focus on bipolar disorder, personality disorders and substance abuse. The case-led session should provide students with an opportunity to test and expand on their knowledge.
