The academic F2 year will be based at Hammersmith and Charing Cross Hospitals, and will<br />

include 4 months of A&E, 4 months in either psychiatry or gastroenterology, and 4 months in<br />

academic primary care.<br />

Primary care is a major arm of health service delivery in the UK, a role strengthened by the<br />

new GP contract. Academic Primary Care has a vital research role in providing evidence for<br />

interventions and a critique on practice, and in equipping undergraduates with skills and<br />

knowledge of relevance both to the specialty and to their development as doctors more<br />

generally. The academic department at <strong>Imperial</strong> has strong roots in epidemiological<br />

approaches to primary care, and a programme of undergraduate teaching which stretches<br />

across the whole curriculum.<br />

It is our aim that trainees in primary care will absorb the culture of an active teaching and<br />

research department, gain skills in teaching and research and achieve a growth in clinical<br />

knowledge and understanding, particularly related to the foundation programme curriculum.<br />

The trainee will have active roles in teaching and research within the department: two days a<br />

week will be reserved for clinical general practice in a teaching practice attached to the<br />

department.<br />

You will be allocated an academic and clinical supervisor at the outset of the attachment<br />

who will ensure the aims of the attachment are met and to assist your preparation for<br />

Foundation Programme assessments.<br />
