Young Doctors - Kidney, Digestive & Musculoskeletal Workshop - July 2022

What happens to all that food you consume daily? How can you eat upside down? Take a journey through your intestines and explore the major organs involved in digestion. The first part of this workshop includes digestive system theory, kidney structure and function and dissection. We then move into the amazing world of muscles, nerves and bones. How do you treat a fracture? What structures are involved in movement? We will delve into musculoskeletal system theory, critical first aid and joint dissection to provide hands on exploration into bones, cartilage, muscles and connective tissues.

Guided by a qualified gifted and talented teacher (with over 10 years experience in delivering human anatomy workshops) and accompanied by our wonderful Emergency Nurse, Yuliya, students will explore the human body like never before to develop anatomical knowledge and foster critical and creative thinking.
