Born of a desire to provide support to phase 2 students at Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, the concept has swollen to greater aspirations.  Now our aims are

  • To provide support for anyone interested in respiratory medicine in Dundee
  • To provide opportunities for interested students, doctors and other healthcare professionals to take part in respiratory based research, both clinical and academic, and to promote respiratory research in the area
  • To showcase the work carried out by the respiratory department within NHS Tayside and the University of Dundee, and highlight areas of excellence of practice
  • To provide a forum for discussion around respiratory medicine

The site is in a state of transition, having been previously used as a portal for the Undergraduate curriculum here in Dundee, but the site will morph with time to provide

  • The blog, containing updates of recent activity, and interesting links in the respiratory world
  • Cases of the week, if there’s something interesting to discuss
  • Current research project work, with opportunities for students, junior doctors, or other healthcare professionals to be involved in our work
  • Links to useful guidelines and web resources
  • Recently published work from the unit
  • Ask DundeeChest – ask us anything

All work in progress, but exciting times ahead.

About DundeeChest 3.0
Born again, phoenix from the flames of DundeeChest and DundeeChest 2.0 comes DundeeChest 3.0. The idea was to provide the medical students of Dundee University Medical School with some support for their respiratory block. Now the students have DundeeChest 4.0 for all their undergraduate needs, and now DC 3.0 is a repository for all things post-graduate. The old undergraduate material is still hidden in here, if you want it.
