Why go: RAFT content, ARS abstract oral presentations, the ARS Research Breakfast and lower Category 2/3 pricing make this unusually trainee-relevant for an anaesthesia research meeting.
Who it’s for: Anaesthesia, perioperative medicine, pain medicine and critical-care researchers, including consultants, residents, medical students, trainee research networks, clinical scientists, nurses and allied health professionals.
