Many thanks to Dr Asad Ali, Deputy Chief Medical Officer at UHCW, for delivering such an inspiring and heartfelt session on his journey in medicine. Our students were captivated.

🩸 Our junior medics got to the heart of the matter today, exploring what blood is really made of.

First MedSoc dissection of the year: sheep heads. Led expertly by our Year 13 students.

Great BioSoc session today with Sarah A and James D exploring the science of opioids 💊

🔥 Hot topics, curious minds 🧠✨. Year 13 students took the stage at Medical Society, delivering research-driven talks to challenge and inspire their peers.

What a start to MedSoc! 🎉 50+ students packed our first session (we’ll need a bigger venue next time!). Huge thanks to Caty Oates for sharing opportunities to volunteer with Kissing it Better. 👩🏽‍⚕️👨🏼‍⚕️

Well done to our Biology Subject Ambassador, James, who was selected to attend a two-day Natural Sciences residential at St John’s College, Cambridge – a fantastic opportunity and achievement!

Day 1 of fieldwork: started with sampling freshwater ponds to compare biodiversity after a morning on sampling methods and diversity indices. More to come.

It’s a busy lunchtime in the Biology Department! 🧬 Current MedSoc President Charlie is delivering a fascinating talk on the gut-skin axis, while former President Emily is running a focused BMSAT support session.

In preparation for their upcoming field trip, our Year 12 Biologists are focusing on accurate sampling, identification, and data handling — key skills for success in ecology 🔍🌿

Great to have Shreya and Santhosh, 4th year medics from @unibirmingham.bsky.social, for a honest and inspiring session at MedSoc today! Great insights into the highs, challenges, and realities of life at medical school 👩🏽‍⚕️👨🏽‍⚕️🏥

Huge thanks to OE Dawood Malik for an inspiring MedSoc Q&A today, sharing top tips on personal statements, UCAT, interviews and insights from his first year at medical school! 🩺

A group of Year 10 Biologists have arrived at @unibirmingham.bsky.social for the Biology Big Quiz! 🧬🔬

Welcome to the official K.E.S. Biology Bluesky page! Here, we will share what happens in and beyond the classroom, from practical investigations and student-led societies to revision sessions and academic success. Follow along to see what our students get up to.
