The newly formed Institute of Musculoskeletal Health and Innovation within Health Sciences University is hosting an exciting opening event. This MSK Study Day is packed with high‑quality topics and leading presenters in the field.

We have deliberately kept costs low to maximise accessibility. Alongside a full MSK clinical programme, we will also be introducing a new MSK Research Community of Practice, designed to support clinicians in practice and help them develop and pursue their research aspirations.

This event is open to all interested MSK clinicians. Places are limited, so early booking is recommended. Tea, coffee and lunch will be provided.
