In this episode, we debrief the AMEE 2025 conference in Barcelona, focusing on key themes such as feedback and debriefing, error-based learning and the role of AI in medical education.

We share insights on how to create a safe learning environment, the importance of managing errors as in the clinical environment and the evolving landscape of AI in education.

In this episode I talk to Rikesh & Tobias, two anaesthetic residents who have set up an anaesthetic skills course for Foundation Doctors.

We discuss some of the challenges of setting up a course from scratch including space to host it, finances, contacts and support available locally. Lots of tips here for anyone thinking of doing similar. Next Anaesthetic Skills for Foundation Doctors course is on 1st October 2025 at the LGH. You book on via the UHL Clinical Education courses webpage.

If you can't make that one then there are plans for another in Feb 2026. You can contact Tobias on Tobias.Mill@nhs.net
