Explore biology, anatomy and medical science through an Oxbridge-style summer programme designed for younger students interested in medicine and the life sciences. The stream introduces the human body, health and wellbeing through interactive learning, experiments and real-world exploration, with teaching from expert tutors and field professionals.

Sessions combine subject learning with discussion, guided investigation and opportunities to think about how diseases develop, how different areas of medical science connect, and how science improves patient care.
Beyond the classroom, participants take part in cultural visits, university experiences and supervised evening activities that complement the academic element. It is aimed at motivated students who want a challenging and enriching introduction to medicine and biological sciences in an inspiring university setting.
