2-YEAR ACADEMIC FOUNDATION PROGRAMMES AT IMPERIAL COLLEGE MEDICAL SCHOOL and PARTNER TRUSTS (IMP) 1. INTRODUCTION At North West Thames Foundation School we aim to introduce Foundation Doctors to academic medicine in order to encourage individuals to undertake further research training and to consider a clinical academic career. 2. DETAILS OF TRAINING PROGRAMMES Programme Reference IMP/001 IMP/002 IMP/003 IMP/004 IMP/005 IMP/006 IMP/007 IMP/008 IMP/009 IMP/010 IMP/011 IMP/012 IMP/013 IMP/014 IMP/015 IMP/016 IMP/017 IMP/018 IMP/019 IMP/020 IMP/021 IMP/022 IMP/023 IMP/024 IMP/025 IMP/026 IMP/027 IMP/028 IMP/029 Programme Theme Academic Medicine Academic Medicine Academic Medicine Academic Medicine Academic Medicine Academic Medicine Academic Chemical Pathology Academic Chemical Pathology Academic Chemical Pathology Academic Primary Care Academic Primary Care Academic Primary Care Academic Primary Care Academic Primary Care Academic Primary Care Academic Medical Genetics Academic Medical Genetics Academic Medical Genetics Academic Anaesthetics Academic Anaesthetics Academic Anaesthetics Academic Surgery Academic Surgery GSK GSK GSK Connecting for Health Connecting for Health Connecting for Health North West Thames offers 29 jobs in the academic programme for 2011. In all cases the F1 year will be a normal F1 programme in order to ensure candidates can establish core clinical medical skills as described in the Foundation curriculum. However, doctors will have the opportunity to attend academic FY1 early evening teaching sessions and will be encouraged to involve themselves in formal teaching commitments. They will also be encouraged to meet up with their academic supervisor for the FY2 year in order to properly plan the best use of their academic block. The F2 year will be based either at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust (Hammersmith, Charing Cross and St Mary’s hospitals), Northwick Park Hospital, or Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, in partnership with Imperial College London. Rotations are based around academic laboratory medicine, genetics, primary care, surgery and anaesthesia.

lecture programme and other related activities will be based mostly at the Hammersmith Hospital. Common features for the academic F2 programmes will include: • A named academic educational supervisor/mentor for the whole year. Trainees will be encouraged to meet with their academic supervisor well in advance of commencing their academic block. At the start of their academic attachment they will agree an academic personal development plan which would include exposure to research techniques, literature analysis, career advice on planning a career in research, grant funding etc. • Termly half day academic foundation programme teach-ins covering all areas of academic medicine. • Attendance at research meetings based around the academic department they are attached to. • Core lecture programme (example – changes each year) • Subcellular imaging • Neuroimaging with PET • Biomedical applications of magnetic resonance • Visualising protein structures • Patterning embryos • Epigenetics • Epistemology and philosophy of science • Microarrays • Transgenic technology • Bioinformatics • Ethical issues in clinical research • Molecular genetics • Translational medicine • Trainees will be encouraged to write a review article under the guidance of their academic mentor based on translational research potentially related to their academic attachment, aimed for publication. During this they will learn critical literature analysis techniques. • They will hopefully generate enough data from the 4 months laboratory or clinical research to contribute to a scientific paper. Clearly 4 months is not sufficient time to finish a project, but the time and work undertaken should have contributed significantly. • They will attend a dedicated one day academic training day covering clinical research and teaching skills (based at Chelsea and Westminster). • A regular evening programme of generic training will be established covering statistics, grant and paper writing, ethics, etc. • They will present their academic work at the NW Thames Academic Symposium in the July of their F2 year. Individuals will be working within routine busy clinical units and are expected to develop the same formal clinical F2 competencies as F2 doctors in non-academic posts within 8 months instead of the standard 12. They will have named clinical educational supervisors in each post who will ensure they address clinical skills in addition to the academic activity. All clinical posts have well established appraisal systems and ongoing educational support. www.stfs.org.uk/student/academic-programmes Email: tfsacademicrecruitment@stfs.org.uk Page 34 of 70 Updated: 27 May 2010
