The Mapping Doctors team takes an interdisciplinary approach to the issues around medical training, and recently our chief historian and co-I Michael Lambert  was invited to share our findings and approach as part of a prestigious Royal Society of Medicine  event. In the January 2025 Online Symposium, Potpourri of breaking boundaries in the history of medicine, he shared a paper entitled “Planning, sustaining and expanding the neurology and neurosurgery workforce in the NHS, 1948-91” which explained how current models of training are historically rooted.
