National Student Psychiatry Conference

The annual National Student Psychiatry Conference (NSPC) is a great opportunity to meet senior psychiatrists and students from other medical schools, and for the chance to learn more about different areas within psychiatry.

We are pleased to announce that the Leeds Psych Soc has been chosen as the host for the NSPC 2025.

The conference will be held on Saturday 1 February to Sunday 2 February at the Worsley Building, Clarendon Way, Woodhouse, Leeds LS2 9LU.

The overall aim of the conference is to:  

  • Increase awareness of Psychiatry as a career.
  • Improve delegates’ knowledge of Psychiatry. 
  • Provide an opportunity for delegates to meet and network with peers and Psychiatrists of all levels.

Abstract for the Poster and Oral Competition

Submissions are now open.

All entries will be considered for a poster presentation, which will take place during the breaks of the conference, allowing you to share your research with the delegates. The top 3, judged by some of our speakers, will be given the opportunity to do an oral presentation. The best poster and oral presentations will be receiving £50 gift voucher awards!

Please attach your abstract on on a psychiatry/psychology/related topic to this form (approx. 300 words), and we will be in touch in due course regarding the outcome and whether you need to prepare for a poster or oral presentation.

If you would only like to do a poster presentation and not an oral presentation, please let us know in the comments.

If you are entering the competition,

you will require a ticket to the conference. Your application will only be considered if we have proof of purchase (you do not need to send proof). 

The deadline is at 11:59pm on Sunday 15 December 2024.
