About this event

From Head to Toe: A Deep Exploration of Transplant Surgery" is aimed at medical students seeking exposure to the field of transplantation—a niche area that many medical students may not encounter during their years of medical school. This low-cost event will provide you with the opportunity to learn about different types of organ transplantation (both common and rare), see how various surgical specialties are integrated into this field, and develop core and specialised surgical skills that transplant surgeons use in their day-to-day procedures.
