LEADING SURGICAL EDUCATION
What's new
Academy
Part of the charitable activity of the Society, BJS Academy is an online educational resource for current and future surgeons.
The Academy is comprised of five distinct sections: Continuing surgical education, Young BJS, Cutting edge, Scientific surgery and Surgical news. Although the majority of this is open access, additional content is available to BJS subscribers and strategic partners.
Journals
The Society owns and publishes two surgical journals, BJS and BJS Open.
One of the most respected journals in the world, BJS provides a combination of scientific articles, reviews and critical commentary. Designed to complement BJS, BJS Open offers a similar range of content and allows authors to publish quality open access research.
Institute
BJS Institute provides formal certified online surgical courses to surgeons in training and established surgeons who wish to develop their skills in surgical writing and publishing.
The initial courses have been designed in collaboration with the University of Edinburgh. The Society is keen to expand and develop the Institute, collaborating with other universities in Europe and beyond. For more information, please contact info@bjsacademy.com.
