How to use the MBChB curriculum directory
This page is the starting point for navigating the Medicine and Surgery learning pathway. The subjects are linked so that foundational sciences explain normal structure and function, disease sciences explain what changes, and clinical subjects apply that knowledge to patient assessment, prevention and management.
A practical learning sequence
- Choose the subject that matches your current timetable, then open its curriculum page to see the complete topic map.
- Start a new topic by reviewing the relevant anatomy, physiology and biochemistry before adding pathology, microbiology and pharmacology.
- When moving into a clinical subject, organise learning around presentations and patient problems rather than memorising diseases as isolated lists.
- Use published notes for focused revision and return to the curriculum page to see which related topics are complete or still pending.
- Finish each study block with active recall, a short case or past-paper question, and a written list of concepts that need clarification.
Study checks
- Can you explain how a basic-science concept changes in disease and affects a patient?
- Can you connect a medicine, investigation or procedure to its indication, benefit and important safety considerations?
- Can you identify which curriculum page contains the next prerequisite or related clinical topic?
- Can you distinguish material learned for revision from guidance that must be checked against current clinical protocols?
Doctors Revision is an independent study resource. Programme names, sequencing and assessment requirements can differ between institutions and may change. Always compare this directory with your university’s current official curriculum, departmental instructions and approved references.
Note availability: Purple, clickable topics open published notes. Items marked “Notes coming soon” remain in the curriculum so learners can see what is planned without being sent to an empty page.
