The 12 month subspecialty training post in Hepatology, commencing August 2015 at the Liver Unit in the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh (including the Scottish Liver Transplant Unit), is currently being advertised on SHOW (closing date Saturday 14 February 2015). This is the only recognised advanced hepatology training post in Scotland. Any trainee wishing to receive a sub-specialty certificate in hepatology must spend one year of their training programme in such a recognised advanced training post. I encourage any trainees who may be interested to contact Professor Peter Hayes (telephone 0131 242 1625 or email vanessa.campbell@luht.scot.nhs.uk) for further details. I also encourage consultants to draw this to the attention of their gastroenterology trainees.

Thank you,
 

Alastair MacGilchrist

SSG President
