The KSS Annual Conference for Resident Doctors is back
We are excited to invite you to the KSS Annual Conference for Resident Doctors 2025. This will be held on Tuesday 18th March at the Amex, Brighton from 9am to 5pm.
The theme of this year’s conference is ‘individual development with collective responsibility’. Come and join us for a day of keynote speakers, interactive workshops and presentations. From leadership to patient safety, the day will cover a variety topics relevant to resident doctors in KSS.
The conference is free to attend, just sign up via our link here. We’ve taken into account all feedback from last year and have planned the day to ensure a good balance of information, ideas sharing and networking. There is also an opportunity to present in our poster competition. Entries are now open, and you can find out more below.
We look forward to seeing you there!
