Clinical Neurology evening with Dr Feather
11 May 2007
New Lecture Theatre, The Royal Society of Medicine

This will be fast moving, interactive session which promises to tax both lecturer and students alike! Neurology is one of the most difficult clinical examinations and students are usually very anxious and poor at performing the skills involved. By the end of the session students should feel far more confident about these skills and the knowledge necessary to support them.

Provisional Programme:

5.30 pm
Registration

6.00 pm
Introduction to clinical neurology
Examination of the cranial nerves - OSCEs, exams and real life
Cerebellar disease - Atazia, nystagmus, and past pointing
Speaker: Dr Adam Feather, Consultant Geriatrician, Newham University Hospital Trust and Senior Lecturer in Clinical Skills at Barts and The London, Queen Mary's School of Medicine and Dentistry

7.30 pm
Welcome break

7.50 pm
Examination of the peripheral nervous system
Wasting, fasiculation and flexor plantars

9.15 pm
Completion of evaluation forms

9.20 pm
Close of meeting

Adam Feather has co-authored numerous revision textbooks, notably the ever popular Pastest Series for EMQs, SAQs and OSCEs for medical finals. He has been teaching clinical skills and revision courses for finals for over ten years. It was once said - 'If there is a better teacher of undergraduate medicine in this world, then I would like to meet him'. Of course the quote was about Sir Fredrick Treeves.
