Join our innovative and dynamic lecture series informing practising surgeons, undergraduate and postgraduate trainees who aspire to be surgeons, along with allied healthcare professionals who support day-to-day work, about the latest themes in surgery.

Our Grand Rounds provide an opportunity for our surgical community to come together and network, develop friendships and relationships with national and international colleagues, present high-quality research and inform others of progress in their specialist field. These are usually held virtually, every fourth Thursday of the month. For a full list of upcoming dates and topics, please visit the King's Health Partners website.
