Medical Sciences Stream

The Medical Sciences Stream will be joined by the Natural Science Stream which will include Oxford’s MPLS Division

Saturday 22 March (9:00am to 3:30pm) with the option to join the Friday night dinner.

Magdalen College, Oxford

How can postgraduates, postdocs, and academics at the University of Oxford approach the medical sciences as Christians? What does it mean to respond to a Christian vocation and to honour God in university life?

The Medical Sciences Stream includes talks on science and Christian faith and may include a panel of Christian academics.

The Medical Sciences Stream includes all MPLS disciplines and welcomes those in the Natural Sciences. Those who register for this stream are also welcome to participate in the Natural Sciences Stream on Friday afternoon and vise versa. This stream is one of five disciplinary streams that make up Seeking Wisdom, the spring conference of Developing a Christian Mind. Past attendees are encouraged to come, listen to new talks, and take part in discussion with new attendees.

**Please note our eligibility criteria: This event is for University of Oxford and Oxford Brookes postgraduates, postdocs, academic staff. If you do not fit this criteria, are DCM Alumni, or in a continuing education program, please complete this form and we will review your request **
