About the “Foundation Cases” teaching series:

Delivering education to trainees has become more challenging during the COVID19 pandemic. As such the ‘foundation cases’ series has been set up to provide doctors as an alternative to face to face teaching. To be kept up to date about upcoming events visit our Facebook page.
