The new President of the Royal Society of Medicine, Sir Barry Jackson, took office in mid-July 2002. A consultant surgeon at St Thomas’ Hospital for nearly thirty years, he is a longstanding Fellow of the Society—a member of the sections of Surgery, History of Medicine and Coloproctology (of which he became President) and serving on the Scientific and Executive Committee and the Council. Other presidencies have included the Association of Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland and, most recently, the Royal College of Surgeons of England. He is an Honorary Consultant Surgeon to the Army and was formerly Surgeon to the Queen. He is interviewed here by Robin Fox.
