The Ulster Medical Society is a professional association for medical practitioners in Northern Ireland. It was formed in 1862 through the amalgamation of the Belfast Medical Society and the Belfast Clinical and Pathological Society.

History[edit]

The origins of the Ulster Medical Society can be traced back to the early 19th century. The Belfast Medical Society was established in 1806, making it one of the oldest medical societies in the region. In 1853, the Belfast Clinical and Pathological Society was founded, focusing on the clinical and pathological aspects of medicine. The two societies merged in 1862 to form the Ulster Medical Society, aiming to promote the advancement of medical knowledge and practice in Ulster.

Activities[edit]

The Ulster Medical Society organizes a variety of activities for its members, including lectures, seminars, and conferences. These events provide opportunities for continuing medical education and professional development. The society also publishes the "Ulster Medical Journal," a peer-reviewed medical journal that covers a wide range of medical topics and research.

Membership[edit]

Membership of the Ulster Medical Society is open to medical practitioners, including doctors, surgeons, and other healthcare professionals. The society offers different categories of membership, including full membership for qualified practitioners and associate membership for those in training.

Publications[edit]

The society's official publication, the "Ulster Medical Journal," has been in circulation since 1932. It is published quarterly and includes original research articles, reviews, and case reports. The journal serves as a platform for the dissemination of medical research and knowledge within the medical community in Northern Ireland and beyond.
