This site was written with the surgical trainee in mind. The objective was to provide the most relevant information in the shortest space of time focused towards passing surgically-orientated clinical examinations. It has since evolved to be a repository of information directly relevant to day-to-day surgical practice as well as an attempt to maintain awareness of other important aspects of medicine. The author has a particular interest in inflammatory signalling pathways, cardiopulmonary bypass technology and cardiothoracic clinical practice.
