Articulate The 2018 Summer Conference was held in Birmingham on Saturday 2nd June. The event included a successful PRT Trainers’ Forum in the morning, focusing on effective mentorship through a PRT Committee-led workshop, followed by a programme of presentations in the afternoon. We were thrilled to host a very international conference this year, with a fantastic array of speakers from all corners of the globe. Thank you to all participating speakers and members for making the day a continuing annual success.

We eagerly anticipating this event as it promised to be a great opportunity to learn, network and confer with our international colleagues. The line-up alone was unmissable with such chiropractic titans as Jan Hartvigsen and Greg Kawchuck alongside new and young innovators such as Jake Cooke and Luke R Davies. On the morning of the event, we were welcomed by an alluring demonstration of traditional Hungarian falconry followed by rousing speeches and presentations. Donald Murphy (Fellow, Royal College of Chiropractors) presented that the market for a spine care specialist is wide open for the taking and we as chiropractors can fulfil this role to reach new levels in the healthcare environment. The world’s leading researcher in musculoskeletal pain – Jan Hartvigsen – then presented his cutting edge research which was applicable to all aspects of practice. The afternoon workshops that followed allowed us full access to practical knowledge presented by chiropractic’s best on subjects including extremity techniques, paediatrics, cervical radiculopathy and neurology. This was all on the first day! It wasn’t all hard work as later that day many of us were treated to a local evening which included horse riding demonstrations and sampling of local food and drink. This was also a great opportunity for some, like myself, to explore Budapest and take in more of the culture of the city. The day that followed was equally as jam-packed with a top-notch itinerary. Throughout the whole event, there were researchers presenting their unique studies in the form of posters. We were proud to represent our home institute – WIOC – as our very own lecturers and fellow classmates held a large space in the research poster suite. Probably the highlight for many was the final evening and subsequent morning of the conference. In the evening we were treated to a black tie gala dinner aboard the Europa as she cruised up and down the Danube with spectacular views of the parliament building and Hungarian architecture. Everyone was up on their feet with the musical entertainment by Audible Release which consisted of David Byfield, Catherine Quinn, Ulrik Sandstrom, David Newell and Ken Young showcasing their talents. The final morning was structured in a brand new format in the style of TED talks with the final presenters having 20 minutes to present their message. We were left with much food for thought including a message from the brand new ECU President to adapt, adopt and evolve. Our visit to the convention was made all the more possible by the fantastic initiative by the RCC: the Student Travel Expenses grant. Myself and my colleagues who received this grant would like to thank the RCC for giving us this opportunity. With warmest regards, Jonathan Shurr Final year WIOC student (soon to graduate!)
