title: How to succeed as a junior doctor.
abstract: The Royal College of Physicians (RCP) organised an inaugural 1-day conference, the aim of which was to look into some of the key issues that junior doctors need to address when beginning their careers. The target audience was medical students but a few foundation doctors were also in attendance. The conference also helped to increase RCP engagement with medical students and foundation doctors. The day was co-chaired by Professor Kate Thomas (vice dean, University of Birmingham) and Dr Andrew Macleod and Dr Kanwaljit Sandhu (RCP regional advisors for the West Midlands).
