Specialty Showcase

The UCL Medical Society is organising a Medical Speciality Showcase, an interactive event designed to introduce medical students, to the wide range of medical specialties available to explore throughout their medical careers.

The event will take place on Friday 27th November 2026, from 5:00pm to 8:30pm, at 40 Bernard Street, UCL, with an anticipated attendance of approximately 100 students.

The showcase will feature 14 speciality stations, each led by representatives from a different UCL Medical Society subcommittee. Participating societies will include:

• Acute Care Society
• Cardiology Society
• Endocrinology Society
• Gastroenterology and Hepatology Society
• GP Society
• Neurology Society
• Obstetrics and Gynaecology Society
• Oncology Society
• Paediatrics Society
• Pathology Society
• Psychiatry Society
• Radiology Society
• Research and Academic Medicine (RAM)
• Respiratory Society

Students will be divided into smaller groups and rotate around the different speciality stations, spending approximately 10 minutes at each. Each station will offer an engaging, hands-on and interactive activity, giving attendees an opportunity to learn about the specialty, explore relevant clinical concepts and gain insight into the different career pathways within medicine.

Activities may include practical demonstrations, clinical scenarios, quizzes and other speciality-specific activities. Each station will be organised and delivered by at least one committee representative, with the aim of making the sessions accessible, informative and enjoyable for students at all stages of their medical education.

The event aims to encourage early exploration of medical specialties, promote engagement with UCL Medical Society's subcommittees and provide students with opportunities to connect with fellow medical students who share similar interests. It will also help raise awareness of the societies and activities available within MedSoc, encouraging wider participation and involvement throughout the academic year.
