College Day 2026
As required by section 6 of the Medical Act 1860, the Special General Meeting (SGM) of fellows to elect the RCP president will take place on Monday 30 March 2026 as part of College Day. The election will be uncontested as the incumbent president Professor Mumtaz Patel was the only fellow nominated. Only fellows can attend this hybrid meeting.
The College Day programme also includes the FitzPatrick and Samuel Gee lectures. The lectures will be accessible online (open to all) with in-person attendance available to pre-booked fellows and subscribing members.
