June 2018 Image Postgraduate students enjoy a boat trip on the River Forth Postgraduate students from Years 1 and 2 of the MSc in primary dental care degree programme enjoyed two weeks of clinical skills training in our well-equipped skills lab in the Edinburgh Dental Institute. This is the only time that students are able to meet each other face to face as they interact online using a virtual learning environment during the rest of the academic year. Tutors provided a full programme of teaching that allowed participants to try out new techniques, equipment and materials. We very grateful to all the sponsors for their support and for providing such an excellent range of materials. The busy teaching programme was balanced by some excellent social events including a trip to the Royal College of Surgeons museum, a boat trip on the River Forth and supper at Edinburgh Castle.
