The Liverpool Neurosurgery Masterclass is a national, biannual course designed to support neurosurgical residents preparing for the FRCS (SN) examination. Now in its 7th iteration, the course has previously welcomed over 250 attendees, with strong national and international faculty involvement. The upcoming Masterclass will be oncology-themed, with a focus on practical, exam-relevant neuro-oncology. Topics include high- and low-grade glioma, cranial metastases, molecular pathology, advanced neuroimaging, operative anatomy, awake surgery, and multidisciplinary decision-making.
The programme consists of interactive lectures, case-based discussions, simulation, and 1:1 viva-style teaching, with an emphasis on areas not easily covered in standard textbooks!
