Welcome World Extreme Medicine Conference Heads To Edinburgh

The World Extreme Medicine Conference will be held at Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh, EH8 8AS from Saturday November 25 to Monday November 27 2017, following the success of the 2016 Edinburgh conference.

Mark Hannaford, founder of conference organisers World Extreme Medicine said, “Edinburgh has a rich history as a centre of innovation and development of modern medicine reaching back for hundreds of years, and that’s one reason that it makes a perfect venue for the World Extreme Medicine Conference.

“Areas of medicine that we will be covering – extreme, expedition and wilderness medicine, disaster and humanitarian medicine and pre-hospital medicine – are rapidly growing and changing, so the spirit of innovation that permeates Edinburgh’s medical scene is appropriate to our aims.

“We aim to bring together professionals working in a broad range of specialisms, in the knowledge that the breaking down of siloes between different areas of medicine and science can bring huge benefits to outcomes for patients.”
