This book was released on 2023-10-26 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prime function of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons is to train and educate surgeons. Its activities include post-Fellowship education, advocacy, philanthropy and research. Behind the façade of the 1930s building which won an architectural award in 1937, there is another, less well-known function - the College is the custodian of diverse collections of material relating to its own history and heritage.Acquired through gift, donation, bequest and presentation, the Collections include furniture, sculpture, ceramics and silverware, as well as photographs and works of art. In addition, it has a substantial collection of surgical instruments, dating mainly from the mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Some of these carry important associations such as the carbolic spray used by Lord Lister at the Glasgow Royal Infirmary. Perhaps its most significant asset is one of the finest collections of historical medical books in Australasia. This collection was the prized possession of the physician and bibliophile, Leslie Cowlishaw and it contains some of the great names of medical history such as Gui de Chauliac, Ambroise Páre and Andreas Vesalius.This volume contains some of the most significant items in the College collections and includes the great mace presented to the College by the Royal College of Surgeons (England) in 1931. The mace is a powerful symbol, representing the authority of the College and it is present at all meetings of Council.At the end of their tenure, the College commissions a portrait of each President, and as the more recent portraits are not included in A.W. Beasley's Portraits at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (1993), these are incorporated in the publication. The portraits are mostly painted by well-known artists and include 'surgeon-artists' like plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Gillian Dunlop.The College's museum and archive have notable collections and these have immeasurable value in tracking the development of surgery and the College's role within surgery and the wider community. It is important that organisations value and preserve their heritage, both to enrich the present and to benefit future generations.

Download or read book How to Get Into Medical School in Australia written by Timothy Shiraev and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘How to Get into Medical School in Australia’ is the definitive guide on how to succeed in your application to medical school – and how to excel once there. The book provides comprehensive details of the admissions processes – both undergraduate and graduate – in an easy-to-digest, chronological format, to help you manage your application step by step. This detailed handbook includes an overview of the admissions process and the career of a doctor, characteristics sought in potential medical students and how to optimise them, study techniques for high school and undergraduate students, information on how to prepare for the medical school entry exams (UMAT and GAMSAT), the pros and cons of undergraduate and postgraduate medical school, and timelines on when to begin preparing for each step of the application process. The guide also features advice on special applications (for mature age, indigenous, rural and international students), non-traditional routes of entry, how to optimise your medical school application form (including sample resumés), and the all-important medical school interview – including how to prepare, how to dress and how to answer questions successfully on the day, as well as several pages of practice interview questions. Once you have succeeded in gaining admission, the book also offers information on what medical school is like, and advice on how to excel and enjoy it (including a list of necessary textbooks). Additionally, the guide includes advice from people who have excelled in various parts of the process: those who aced their high school leaver’s exams, medical students, and junior and senior doctors. They describe their experiences and, most importantly, provide tips and guidance on how to succeed in getting into and studying at medical school. Also included are the profiles of every medical school in Australia, detailing entry requirements, contact details, fees, numbers of places for students and the focus and academic ranking of each individual school.
Download or read book Australia s Toxic Medical Culture written by Vicki Adele Pascoe and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-11 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores dominance in Australia’s medical culture through the positioning of international medical graduates (IMGs). It argues that IMGs are ‘othered’ and ultimately positioned as an underclass, a positioning validated and reinforced by the intersecting inequalities of class, race and nation. It also suggests that the positioning of IMGs is organised through the dimensions of structural power, hegemonic power and interpersonal power, which allow an exploration of power relations between the structures of the health system, the Australian medical profession and the agency of IMGs. The Australian narrative presented to the world espouses a community of social justice and human rights. Instead, an historical lens traces the formation and persistence of difference represented in ethnocentrism, racism and xenophobia from 1788 to the present. The research presented is multidisciplinary in scope. An anti-oppressive theoretical framework enables the voices of lived experience to penetrate throughout and a social justice platform engages the participants and the reader into the interwoven conversations. The data set comprises a focus group, 10 individual interviews with IMGs and a selection of inquiry submissions revealing rich and sometimes shocking evidence to paint a stark picture. Other medical voices join the conversation via media responses to revelations of experiences not only by IMGs but also by Australian-trained doctors. It exposes a toxic culture endemic with bullying and sexual harassment.This book is of interest to practitioners, researchers and administrators in the fields of medical education, human resource management, legal studies, health sciences, social sciences, health services, government departments, universities and hospitals, as well as those tasked with duty of care and the provision of a safe workplace. The voices gifted to this study raise awareness of current issues within medicine in Australia at a very personal level and begin to formulate a policy and practical response to address these disturbing revelations.

Download or read book The Perfect Vagina written by Lindy McDougall and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the West, a specific ideal for female genitalia has emerged: one of absence, a "clean slit," attained through the removal of pubic hair and, increasingly, through female genital cosmetic surgery known as FGCS. In The Perfect Vagina: Cosmetic Surgery in the Twenty-First Century, Lindy McDougall provides an ethnographic account of women who choose FGCS in Australia and the physicians who perform these procedures, both in Australia and globally, while also examining the environment in which surgeons and women come together. Physicians have a vested interest in establishing this surgery as valid medical intervention, despite majority medical opinion explicitly acknowledging that a wide range of genital variation is normal. McDougall offers a nuanced picture of why and how these procedures are performed and draws parallels between FGCS and anthropological discussions of female genital circumcision (cutting). Using the neologism biomagical, she argues that cosmetic surgery functions as both ritual and sacrifice due to its promise of transformation while simultaneously submitting the body to the risks and pain of surgery, thus exposing biomedicine as an increasingly cultural and commercial pursuit. The Perfect Vagina highlights the complexities involved with FGCS, its role in Western beauty culture, and the creation and control of body image in countries where self-care is valorized and medicine is increasingly harnessed for enhancement as well as health.
