Organiser : Narman Puvanachandra (Training Program Director and Associate Dean)
We run monthly CORE teaching days that all trainees attend across the region. They are split between Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital (NNUH) and Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge (ADD)
The basic format is typically interactive talks in the morning and then OSCE based stations in the afternoon to hone clinical examination skills in small groups.

Location & Directions
Murray Edwards College is situated on Huntingdon Road, to the north-west of the City Centre. The Porters’ Lodge is accessed via Buckingham Road which is off Huntingdon Road.
If travelling by car, visitors should park in the car park at the rear of the College, off Storey’s Way. Parking spaces are on a first come, first served basis.
If using sat-nav, please use the post code CB3 0DR. All guests are directed to the Main College from the car park. We put out direction signs for specific events but they can also visit the Porters Lodge for directions.
Arriving by rail? It is probably quickest and easiest to take a taxi from the Rail Station to Murray Edwards.
If you are arriving by bicycle, we have bike parking by the tennis courts off Storey’s Way and close to the Porters’ Lodge off Huntingdon Road. All bikes are left at the owners risk and we would advise you use a secure lock.
