Trauma, Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Society - Portfolio Night (28/10/2026, 19:00)

Wed, 07 Oct 2026 11:10:12 +0100

Glasgow University Trauma Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Society's Surgical Portfolio Night!

HALLOWEEN EDITION

Thinking about a career in Trauma & Orthopaedics, or surgery in general? Or wondering what comes after Foundation Training? Whatever your plans, this is the night to start thinking about building your portfolio that won't come back to haunt you!

This year we are very proud to announce our first combined educational and social event taking place Wednesday 28th of October 7-10pm, a fantastic opportunity to get first-hand insight into the Core Surgical Training (CST) pathway as well as the Trauma & Orthopaedics Specialty Training (ST) pathway, both of which are highly competitive and beneficial to be aware of as early as possible in medical school.

Alternatively (or both), you can come along for a warm and welcoming evening where you can mingle with like-minded students who are simply curious about our specialty and what events our society will have to offer in the future, and meet our Honorary President and wonderful committee for this academic year.

And last but not least, take part in our Halloween costume competition! That's right, let's see your dress-up skills outside of academia! And of course you are most welcome to grab a drink (or few, responsibly of course) at the bar. The night will be rounded off by the speakers, committee members, and audience voting in which attendee has the best costume, so get creative, it's not a trick! And the winner will definitely be getting a treat! So come along and join us! We are looking forward to haunting the GUU Reading Room and seeing you there!

🏔️ GWEMS Intro Weekend: Zero to Hero

Ready to take your medical skills out of the classroom?

Join GWEMS for our incredibly popular annual Intro Weekend — the first residential event of the year and the perfect opportunity to discover wilderness medicine, develop practical skills, and meet fellow members.

📍 Glen Nevis Youth Hostel, at the foot of Ben Nevis

Whether you're completely new to wilderness medicine or already a clinical-stage healthcare student, this weekend is designed to take you from zero to hero. You'll learn and develop essential skills through hands-on teaching, practical workshops and realistic scenarios, with groups tailored to your experience.

🩺 What will you learn?

Across the weekend, you'll get hands-on experience with:

A–E assessment and management
Catastrophic haemorrhage control
Extrication and rescue techniques
Wilderness medicine fundamentals
Practical workshops led by experts in their fields

We've previously welcomed international search-and-rescue team members, pre-hospital physicians, mountain rescue personnel and white-water rescue specialists, giving you the chance to learn from people with real-world experience in challenging environments.

🌙 Saturday Night: Search & Rescue Simulation

As night falls, the real fun begins.

Put your new skills to the test in our iconic nighttime search-and-rescue simulation. Working as a team, you'll head into the darkness of the Scottish Highlands to find, assess and treat simulated casualties.

It's immersive, challenging and unlike anything you're likely to experience at university.

🚨 Sunday: Mass-Casualty Simulation

On Sunday, you'll tackle a major incident scenario.

Take your pick: get your acting boots on and become a casualty in full moulage and makeup, or work under the guidance of experienced participants to triage, treat and evacuate multiple casualties from a simulated major incident.

🏕️ More than just a weekend

This is your chance to build practical skills, challenge yourself, experience wilderness medicine first-hand and meet other students who share an interest in emergency and expedition medicine.

Whether you're starting from scratch or already have clinical experience, GWEMS Intro Weekend is designed to take you from zero to hero.

Come for the medicine. Stay for the adventure. 🏔️

🎟️ Tickets: Keep an eye on our Instagram for ticket release announcements and further information about the weekend. Tickets are expected to be popular, so make sure you’re following us so you don’t miss out!

Cardiovascular Society - GUSSxGUCVS: Endoscopic Skills Night (03/11/2026, 18:00)

Tue, 20 Oct 2026 15:39:42 +0100

Ever wondered how surgeons operate through tiny incisions, guided only by a camera? Glasgow University Surgical Society (GUSS) and Glasgow University Cardiovascular Society (GUCVS) are joining forces for an evening of hands-on endoscopic skills training. Whether you are set on a surgical career, curious about it, or simply enjoy learning practical skills, this is a brilliant chance to stop reading about surgery and try it for yourself.

Endoscopic and minimally invasive surgery has transformed modern medicine. Instead of large open incisions, surgeons now work through small ports using a camera and specialised instruments, which often means less pain, smaller scars and faster recovery for patients. It also demands a very different skill set from open surgery. Surgeons must work from a two-dimensional screen, coordinate both hands, and develop precise, steady movements. This evening is all about getting you started. You will have the chance to practise these skills yourself, with guidance from experienced surgeons who use them every day. It is a rare opportunity to move beyond lectures and textbooks and get a real feel for what this kind of surgery involves.

Your first speaker is Mr Nikos Kostoulas, Consultant Thoracic Surgeon at the Golden Jubilee National Hospital. Mr Kostoulas specialises in minimally invasive (keyhole and robotic) lung surgery and the surgical management of emphysema. He is also the Golden Jubilee’s Educational Lead in Thoracic Surgery, so he is passionate about teaching the next generation of surgeons and knows how to help beginners get to grips with new skills.

Joining him is Ms Chakrabarti, Consultant General and Colorectal Surgeon at University Hospital Wishaw. Ms Chakrabarti brings expertise in colorectal and pelvic floor surgery, giving you a look at how endoscopic techniques are applied across different surgical specialties. Between them, you will hear first-hand about careers in thoracic and colorectal surgery, how minimally invasive techniques have changed clinical practice, and what it takes to train in a surgical specialty. This is a great chance to ask questions and get honest advice from people who have been through it themselves.

There are plenty of reasons to come along. You will learn by doing rather than just watching, with practical time at the equipment. You will be taught directly by two consultant surgeons who are experts in their fields. You will gain real insight into what life in thoracic and colorectal surgery is like. Practical skills experience is also a great addition to your portfolio and future applications, and it shows genuine commitment to developing as a future clinician. On top of that, you will meet like-minded students from both surgical and cardiovascular backgrounds, which is always a good way to build connections that last beyond a single evening.

No prior experience is needed. Beginners are very welcome, and the session is designed so that everyone can take part and build confidence, whatever their year of study or background. Everyone starts somewhere, and the best way to improve is to have a go in a supportive, friendly environment.

Spaces are very limited, because practical sessions work best in small groups where everyone gets proper time and attention. There are only 30 tickets in total, with 15 allocated to GUSS members and 15 allocated to GUCVS members. You only need membership of one of the two societies to book. If you are not a member yet, make sure you sign up to GUSS or GUCVS before tickets are released so you are ready to book straight away. With so few places, we expect them to go quickly, so keep an eye on our social media pages and be ready to grab your ticket as soon as they go live.

Please arrive promptly so you do not miss any of the session, and note that only ticket holders will be able to take part. If you book a ticket and find you can no longer attend, let us know as soon as possible so we can offer your place to someone else.

Glasgow University Surgical Society supports students interested in surgery through practical workshops, talks and career guidance from surgeons across a range of specialties. Glasgow University Cardiovascular Society brings together students with an interest in the heart and circulation, offering educational events, speaker talks and opportunities to learn about cardiovascular medicine and surgery. Together, we are bringing you an evening that combines our shared passion for hands-on learning and clinical excellence.

Don’t miss out on this brilliant opportunity to learn, practise and get inspired. Tell your friends and coursemates, and we will see you there! If you have any questions, message us directly or get in touch with the GUSS or GUCVS committee.

Our Mind Yourself programme has the overall aim of informing participants how to develop flourishing mental health.

The programme covers the following areas:

Understanding the Mental Health Spectrum

Understanding the mental health spectrum
The human negativity bias, stress, and the positivity ratio

Mind Your Mate (05/11/2026, 10:00)

Tue, 06 Oct 2026 16:07:07 +0100

Overview

Our Mind Your Mate training programme is a three-hour student-led workshop, developed in collaboration with Two Roads CIC; an award-winning not-for-profit social enterprise that develops and delivers training to improve emotional health and safety.

Mind Your Mate and its accompanying workshop, Mind Yourself, form part of our aim to build a community of Mental Health Champions, reduce the stigma surrounding mental health, and cut down the barriers that prevent people from accessing the help and support they need.

The overall objective of our programme is to help participants develop basic suicide prevention skills. It explains the boundaries that keep everyone safe. Our role is to help those at risk to engage with professional help, not to try and provide that help ourselves.

CW: To help someone who is at risk of suicide we need to talk about suicide risk, and so we will be talking unemotionally about suicide risk throughout the programme. If at any time you find this distressing, you may withdraw from the programme and are always welcome to complete it another time.

The training programme is structured as follows:

Section 1

Myths and Facts around Suicide

Group exercise covering many of the most common myths around suicide.

Section 2

Emotional Resilience and Depression

What is resilience, and why is it so important.
Protective and risk factors.
Clinical depression.
Recovery from depression – what works?

Section 3

Depression and Suicide Risk

What is suicide?
The five elements of the suicidal mind.
Why would someone consider suicide?
How can we reduce suicide risk – World Health Organisation.
Can we save someone?
Why might someone not ask for help?
Why might someone not try to help?

Section 4

Safely helping someone using the Look, Listen, and Link model

Look, Listen, Link model.
Look for the signs – IS PATH WARM FOR.
Listen and ask – active listening model.
Link to the help that is available – crisis, serious concern, or needs help.

Our workshops are free for all University of Glasgow students and staff to attend, either online or in-person. Upon successful completion of our Mind Your Mate and Mind Yourself workshops, you will receive a completion certificate signed-off by the University’s Chief Operating Officer, acknowledging your status as a University Mental Health Champion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is talking about suicide dangerous?

Research indicates strongly that people become suicidal because of unbearable pain – it is not the word suicide. Evidence is clear that allowing someone to talk about their suicidal thoughts is likely to reduce the immediate risk.

What is the difference between suicide prevention and suicide intervention?

Suicide intervention is necessary when someone is intending to hurt themselves. Suicide prevention happens earlier; helping to link someone to professional support can stop someone becoming suicidal.

Will I be asked to introduce myself and why I am attending?

Is the programme upsetting?

The programme content is factual and delivered in a calm manner. Personal disclosure is avoided wherever possible. Very occasionally a participant may become upset, due to having experienced the suicide of someone close.

Is the programme suitable for someone who has suicidal thoughts?

If you believe someone is at risk of suicide, please bring them to their doctor or hospital as soon as possible; do not leave them on their own. The programme will explain to participants how they can access help but it is not a substitute for immediate professional support.

Will I be asked any direct questions?

No, all questions are asked of the whole group and participants can answer if they wish.

Will I be asked to participate in any role-plays?

No – there are no role-plays in the training programme.

Can I save someone from suicide?

Not every suicide is preventable. However, in most cases, the risk of suicide can be reduced by linking the person with suicidal thoughts to the professional help they need. That is our role and the core of our training – identifying that someone is at risk, letting them talk and linking them to the help they need.
