Meet the Editor-In-Chief

Abstract

I am delighted to have been voted Surgo’s Editor-in-Chief for 2025/26 at MedChir’s Annual General Meeting! I am excited to continue the legacy that Danyaal has left us, continuing to inform, educate and entertain members of the medical school and beyond.

Expect interesting stories, student experiences and events to feature in Surgo, with more reader engagement through interactive competitions and collaboration with clubs and societies.

Look forward to big things over the coming year, not least our fresh new format, but new regular features and quizzes to keep you on top of all things Glasgow medicine.

This edition, read about a pioneering public health academic, who transformed the management of upper GI bleeds, student electives, humanitarian missions overseas and exciting new societies which are having a positive impact on improved accessibility to medical school; to name a few!

Alongside an excellent committee, I want to make Surgo the cornerstone of our shared medical school experience and a source of support to help people get through the throes that come with it!
