The BSG web team are looking for enthusiastic individuals to expand our current group of web article reviewers. This could be included as part of your CPD diary and could help enrich your own knowledge too. It is a rewarding process and allows us to support our members in their education. The articles are short but require professional review and constructive comments. The commitment will be sporadic but we do ask that you’re able to return the review in a timely fashion when requested. This is open to consultants, senior registrars (ST6 and above), specialist nurses or senior allied health professionals in Gastroenterology and/or Hepatology.
