What are the Braincutting Sessions?

Professor Gentleman has kindly allowed for small groups of students to observe his neuropathology research at the Multiple Sclerosis & Parkinson's Tissue Bank, located at the Imperial College Hammersmith Hospital campus. These small group sessions allow for a unique teaching experience different to learning from any textbook - this is a real life opportunity for understanding the anatomy of the brain and pathology of disease. Last year, these sessions were very popular but immensely oversubscribed. 

 

When are the sessions?

TBC for 2023/2024

​

Each session starts at 9.30AM and is expected to last 2 hours.

​

Do I need to pay?

This event is completely free for all members of our society.

​

How do I sign up? 

Each session can only accommodate a small number of observers. The link to register will be sent to those on the mailing list which can be signed up to here.

​

Places will partially be allocated on a first come, first serve basis and partially to organise the groups to contain students of a similar year group. Please note we will only be allocating places to members of our society. Membership is £3 and can be purchased through our website here. 

​

Due to COVID precautions, we can only allow 3 students to observe per session.
