Congratulations to Surg. Lt. Cdr. Cara Swain RN, who *nailed* the public defence of her surgical PhD yesterday! Huge thanks to her supervisors at @karolinskainst (where PhD examination requires candidates to literally nail their thesis to the Library wall). Well done Cara!

I will still be posting from @nigeltai concerning @NHSBartsHealth trauma surgery and @CommsC4TS updates. Many thanks to the amazing colleagues at RLH and @AirborneMedics @16AirAssltBCT and @JHubMED_Defence for bringing me this far. End/x

Think this is my first "Honoured to be..." tweet, but... *circumstances*. This week I took up the @RCSNews Chair of Military and Trauma Surgery as Head of the Academic Dept of Military Surgery at @DMS_RCDM 1/x

[Defence Professor of Military Surgery @DefProfSurg]

@MidwinterMJ Very much looking forward to working with fellow military and clinical surgical academics, collaborating with my Def Prof and DCA colleagues, and seeking new opportunities to bring the fruits of surgical research to our service people.

[Defence Professor of Military Surgery @DefProfSurg]

@TMitchellFRCS Cara is also a recipient of the @RCSnews Research Fellowship and is conducting her research @karolinskainst supervised by @Klas233 and @roryrickard.

[Defence Professor of Military Surgery @DefProfSurg]
