This programme is based at Charing Cross/Hammersmith hospitals where the major<br />
academic surgical departments include vascular, orthopaedics, cardiothoracic and<br />
hepatobiliary surgery. The academic F2 year will include 4 months of urology, 4 months of<br />
A&E medicine or 4 months in vascular surgery, and 4 months attached to one of the<br />
academic surgical units, either on the Hammersmith or Charing Cross campus of <strong>Imperial</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> <strong>London</strong>. During this period they will contribute to a clinical or laboratory based<br />
research project, and learn skills in surgical research.<br />
Trainees will be offered a choice of surgical research projects from a range of surgical<br />
sciences, under the guidance of a research supervisor, and learn about the application of<br />
modern research techniques in surgery.<br />

The ABPI linked programme is based at Hammersmith and comprises 8 months clinical work<br />
(2 placements of acute medicine, ICU or respiratory) and 4 months attached to the new<br />
GlaxoSmithKline clinical imaging centre at Hammersmith, where trainees will learn about<br />
translational medicine and especially the role of imaging in developing new therapies<br />
(especially in neuroscience and cancer), academic pharmaceutical practice, trial design and<br />
drug development, and will be attached to a research group in the centre undertaking a<br />
research project.<br />
Intensive training in ICH GCP will be provided, as well as an introduction to practical aspects<br />
of clinical trials conduct and advanced imaging techniques including positron emission<br />
tomography. Rotators are encouraged to pursue a specific aspect of a broader research<br />
project with mentorship from a CIC scientist. Past studies have included pilot assessment of<br />
sodium MRI imaging in osteoarthritis, improved methods for measurement of muscle mass<br />
using MRI and diffusion tensor imaging connectivity-based parcellation of the striatum in<br />
schizophrenia.<br />
