Surgeons' Hall Museums presents a series of bite sized lunch time talks for Spring 2024.

This talk will explore why Edinburgh became the place to study medicine in the 18th/ 19th centuries. We will explore the circumstances and some of the key figures that led to a relatively small city having such a huge influence on medical education and training in the UK and further afield.

The talk will last approximately 30mins and there will be tea and coffee available for ticket holders.
