The abstract submission for ISCOMS 2023 is open from October 16th 2022 till January 29th 2023.
You can submit your abstract now via this link!
The International Student Congress Of (bio)Medical Sciences, also known as ISCOMS, is one of the world’s leading student congresses in (bio)medical sciences. ISCOMS is not just any regular congress, it is a non-profit organisation made up of students that aims to promote student research and the international exchange of it.
Throughout the three day congress, they offer a stimulating venue for student research exchange and give students the opportunity to broaden their social and scientific network. Their scientific program includes different research from students all over the world which are presented in poster, oral or plenary form, all in front of an international and professional audience. Along with these student sessions there will be fascinating keynote lectures and hands-on workshops. Along with a rich scientific program, they also have an elaborate social program, filled with dinners and parties giving a chance for all the participants to get to know and have fun with each other and the ISCOMS organisation.
The most important function of your abstract is to show that you have a valuable contribution to the congress and to lure the audience to your presentation. Abstracts will only be considered for the abstract selection procedure when they are written in English and do not exceed a maximum of 350 words. Unfortunately, we cannot accept case-studies, reviews, and literature studies (except for meta-analysis).
* Note: Preliminary results are allowed in your abstract.
Abstracts should contain the following subheadings:
There are no strict rules for writing an abstract. However, there are important guidelines that can help you improve your abstract, which can be found below.
The program of ISCOMS 2023 can be found here.
Registration for non-presenting participants opens the 1st of March 2023.
The venue of the 30th ISCOMS will be the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG).
The UMCG is the only university medical center in the northern part of the Netherlands, and therefore the final point of referral for many patients. Patients go to the UMCG for basic care as well as highly specialised, top clinical and top reference care, such as organ transplantation, complex neurosurgery, neonatology, clinical genetics, In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), pediatric oncology, renal dialysis and traumatology. All medical specialties are represented, as well as educational programmes for all medical disciplines.
You can find the fees for ISCOMS 2022 and payment methods via this link.

We are going to guide you through the process of finding work in the NHS. We will discuss the following:
If you have not completed an internship during or after your medical studies, you will only receive Provisional Registration with the GMC. With this, you will only be able to obtain an F1 training post, provided you send in your eligibility application. You will have to complete Foundation Year 1 in order to obtain Full Registration.
On the other hand, if you have completed 12 months of internship, you will receive Full Registration with the GMC and a license to practice medicine in the UK. Once this is obtained, you are free to apply for either F2 Standalone Training or a Trust grade job.
There are several ways to find out who is hiring. Some websites you could look at are:
1. nhsjobs.com
2. jobs.nhs.uk
Some other ways include looking through the ‘Current Vacancies’ section within a particular trust’s website. Newspapers, BMJ careers, and LinkedIn offer updates on vacancies in the NHS as well.
There are several terms for the various grades in NHS. This can get quite tricky when it comes to applying for jobs based on your experience.
The three main levels of doctors in the NHS are:
• Junior grade doctor
• Middle/senior grade doctor
• Consultant
Elaborating further, several titles may pop up that refer to the level of a junior doctor:
• Foundation Year 1 (FY1)
• Foundation Year 2 (FY2)
• Senior House Officer (SHO)
• Junior Clinical Fellow
• Clinical Fellow (usually ST/CT1/2)
• Trust grade doctors (FY2, CT1/2, ST1/2)
• Locum appt. for Service (LAS) – CT or ST
• Locally employed doctor (LED)
First and foremost, you should create an account with the website you wish to use to send your applications. For example, if you want to apply to a post advertised on trac Jobs, you must create a trac jobs account first. All your correspondence with the employer will occur through this platform, and if you set up email notifications, you will get updates via your email as well.
The next task is to create a good Curriculum vitae (CV). You should be able to modify your CV to showcase your skills and qualifications for the job you are applying for rather than send in a standard CV to all the vacancies.
While searching for jobs, put in the different titles to see all the jobs that are advertised for a junior doctor. The main things to look for when looking for a vacancy are:
• Title
• Speciality
• Person and job specifications
• Salary
• And most importantly, the closing date
Most employers can close the vacancy well before the advertised closing date if they have received the required number of applications for the particular post.
The most important part of ensuring that you stand a fair chance at getting the job you wish to apply for is reading through the Person Specification mentioned at the end of the post description. The description is usually split into an Essential Requirement and a Desirable requirement. The more you align with the Essential requisites, the higher the chance of getting short-listed.
Once you have sent a couple of applications, the next thing to do is to wait for a response from the employers. This usually takes about 4-6 weeks from the closing date. You will be notified if you have been selected to proceed to the next stage of the process, i.e., the Interview.
However, do keep in mind, some employers do not inform you if you have been unsuccessful!
• Make sure you have 3 references informed and ready before you send your application
• Prepare something about Teamwork skills and Leadership and Management skills
• Jot down any procedures and practical skills you do during your internship, like cannulation, inserting a catheter, inserting an NG tube, etc., to make it easier during the time of your application
• Having NHS experience is always a bonus, so if you wish, you can do a Clinical Attachment in the UK after you have obtained your full registration with the GMC; however, it is not mandatory to get a job in the UK!

TrewLink, in collaboration with Dr. Ayesha Mohammad, an IMG from Bangladesh and ST1 Psychiatry in London, will provide an informative and engaging session about the SHO job in Psychiatry:
‘Hi! I’m Ayesha, a Bangladeshi IMG and a Psychiatry non-training ST1 doctor working in London. I have always been fascinated by the NHS system, and always wanted to work in the UK. Therefore, I decided to go through the PLAB route and finally got my GMC registration in August 2021. For me personally, it has not been an easy journey at all, especially when you have to go through different exams which are required to start working as an IMG NHS doctor. That is why I have been helping fellow IMGs with free guidance and advice.’
