The Cowlishaw Symposium
On this page
Overview
To honour the memories of Dr Leslie Cowlishaw and Professor Kenneth Russell, and to promote greater knowledge of medical history, the College holds the Cowlishaw Symposium every two years. Speakers are invited to present papers on topics drawn from the books in the Cowlishaw Collection. A feature of the Symposium is the Kenneth Fitzpatrick Russell Memorial Lecture, on a subject related to anatomy and/or medical history. Established in 1996, the Symposium is now one of the most important events in the College's calendar.
