Post 18 CODE: IMP/018 F1 Hillingdon Vascular Surgery 4m Anaesthetics 4m Endocrinology 4m F2 Northwick Park Academic/ 4m A&E 4m GI Gastro 4m Clinical Genetics The academic F2 year will be based at Northwick Park Hospital, and will include 4 months of A&E, 4 months in GI gastroenterology and 4 months in academic clinical genetics. Clinical Genetics is a rapidly expanding field within which research plays an integral role. In addition, the impact of genetics is increasingly being seen in all branches of mainstream medicine. It is our aim to give F2 trainees an opportunity to develop key skills needed for an academic career at the same time as gaining experience of clinical genetics and an understanding of the role of this specialist service within the NHS. The trainee will be involved in seeing a wide range of genetic referrals including general, paediatric and cancer referrals. Patients are seen in clinics both at Northwick Park Hospital and at peripheral clinics within the region covered by the North West Thames Regional Genetics Service. Initially trainees will sit in on consultations as observers. Towards the end of the attachment, they will be encouraged to take a more active part in the consultation process, with appropriate supervision. The strong clinical aspects of this post will allow development of key foundation programme skills including working as part of a multidisciplinary team, improved communication skills and the ability to carry out internet and database searches as part of pre- and post clinic work up of patients. This post has no oncall commitment. All trainees will undertake a short study during their attachment with the aim of publication in a peer-reviewed journal. Previous trainees have undertaken a variety of clinical or laboratory-based projects at either Northwick Park or Hammersmith Hospitals, which we have aimed to match to their long term career aims. The scope of these has been wide and has included hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia, congenital myopathy, Silver-Russell syndrome and familial adenomatous polyposis coli. Trainees are also encouraged to carry out an audit project during their attachment. In-house teaching and academic seminars will provide basic knowledge of the principles behind clinical genetics and insight into the range of research opportunities within this specialty. Since there is close liaison between clinical and diagnostic laboratory staff within the department, trainees will be able to observe procedures within both DNA and cytogenetics laboratories. Weekly meetings are also held to discuss results with laboratory staff. Trainees will be allocated an academic and clinical supervisor who will be responsible for overseeing progress throughout the attachment and providing further career guidance.
