In particular, the presentation of difficult cases or those highlighting important learning are encouraged at the weekly Thurs Case Discussion and external speakers with specific areas of expertise are invited to the Tues Academic Seminar. The DoI weekly education programme is currently as follows:

Academic Seminar (GSTT) Tuesday 09.00 - 10.00

Furthermore, the Trusts Dept. of Postgraduate Education runs an active and diverse education and training programme for all clinical staff.

A major redesign of laboratory services has occurred as part of the joint venture between Guys and St Thomas NHS Trust, Kings College Hospital and SYNLAB UK & Ireland. Working with Synnovis, the JV Has opened a Pathology Hub near Blackfriars, located about 10 minutes-walk from both St Thomas and Guys sites.

The service offers a wide range of specialist bacteriology, virology and fungal diagnostics including cystic fibrosis and transplant bacteriology, mycobacterial identification and susceptibility testing, molecular PCR assays, serology assays and testing for the heart valve bank.

Pathology specialties have been relocated to the hub. An Essential Services Laboratory (ESL) has been retained at each site which will process urgent samples. A category 3 laboratory is also retained at St. Thomas in order to service our HCID-a centre. Further information about Synnovis and the South East London Pathology Hub can be found here: https://sel.synlab.co.uk/
