About this session
How many times would Harry and Marv have been hospitalised in Home Alone?
In our December festive monthly lecture, emergency medicine doctor Luke Tester will explore exactly how the NHS would have managed the menagerie of malaise inflicted by Kevin McCallister on these bungling bandits. From stitches to CT scans, air ambulances to emergency surgery, and police custody to intensive care units, this fun evening will answer the questions you may have never asked.
Following Dr Luke Tester’s lecture, the BSMS Anatomy Society will be leading a series of hands-on workshops for you to explore our topic further and gain some clinical skills in the process!

The BSMS AnatSoc aims to help you with all things anatomy. If you’re interested in anatomy, you be-lung with us! We run events all year round, making quizzes and revisions sessions to help students study, plus fun events like film nights and tote bag decorating, but by far our biggest and best event is a big school trip to an anatomy museum with staff and students alike to be able to enjoy the curated collections available. What can we say? We put the humour into humour-us…
