Student and Foundation Doctor Network
The Royal College of Physicians' (RCP's) Student and Foundation Doctor Network (SFDN) offers medical students and foundation doctors an invaluable opportunity to get actively involved with the RCP and to help shape our policy, services and activities.
What we are doing
The SFDN is made up of 20 medical student and foundation doctor representatives located across the UK, plus a network chair, who act as RCP ambassadors in their regions. Its work is currently focused on three main themes:
- working lives
- career development
- local engagement and communications.
Cassim Akhoon, SFDN chair, explains the network's current focus:
We are currently working on several projects to address areas that you've highlighted as important. Medicine is a collaborative profession and I hope that over the coming year you will get involved in the work we do, and collectively help to strengthen and unify the important voice of foundation doctors and medical students.
Contribute to our work
Contribute to our 'best piece of advice' project to share your experiences and learning with your peers.
