BAPIO Medical Students and Young Doctors

BAPIO Medical Students and Young Doctors BAPIO provides mentoring, resources, networking opportunities, chances to present at national conferences and host a variety of social and cultural events!

More about BAPIO:

In 1996, a group of passionate doctors worried about barriers faced by Indian Medical Graduates in realising their potential in the National Health Service, created BAPIO. Intention was to influence changes affecting career, working environment and well being of Ethnic Minority Doctors (EMD). In addition, idea was to provide support and guidance to the new medical graduates arriving from overseas in integrating within the NHS working environment. But, that was long ago! Today, there are estimated 40,000 doctors of Indian origin working in the National Health Service. The intake in UK Medical Schools of Indian origin students is about 20%. Although over the years there has been significant improvement in the way EMDs are treated in the NHS; these doctors continue to face barriers in career progression. There are problems in passing examination, many report bullying and harassment and significantly more (than white British) are reported to the General Medical Council. Unfair treatment and discriminatory practices remains a major disadvantage faced by these doctors. BAPIO, a national voluntary organisation with passion for equality and diversity has a major role to play in unlocking opportunities for EMDs by influencing the national policies and providing support to individual doctors. Hence, BAPIO's vision: Empowering doctors and dentists of Indian heritage to be beacons of leadership and professional excellence. Members will get support in times of difficulty and more importantly will have the opportunity to contribute to the welfare of fellow professionals.

MedTech HoloLens Trial Participation Opportunities

Calling all 1st-3rd year medical students that have NOT had any teaching on thyroid/ENT focussed history taking and thyroid examination! We are looking for students to take part in a medical education project that uses a mixed reality device called Microsoft HoloLens that uses both reality and virtual technology such as 3D holograms. We want to evaluate HoloLens as a teaching tool for case-based learning for a patient presenting with thyroid conditions. During the session, we’re going to teach you how to take an ENT focused history, a thyroid examination and hopefully some anatomy.

All sessions are online so all you need to do is dedicate an hour of your time for the teaching on one of the dates.

Throughout the session, we’ll be monitoring for engagement, and measuring performance with a short quiz before and after the teaching. We’ll also be asking you to fill out a brief questionnaire on your experience.
�The remote teaching will be really useful for your clinical years and is taught by ENT professionals! Certificates of participation in a medical education and technology trial also provided! To sign-up, please fill in the form in the link below or email rm3817@ic.ac.uk if you have any queries.

Qualtrics makes sophisticated research simple and empowers users to capture customer, product, brand & employee experience insights in one place.
