Christopher West from Clinical Surgery presents his Three Minute Thesis entitled "Blood, Sweat and Ears". Christopher won the competition for this presentation. The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition requires PhD students to compete to deliver the best research presentation in just three minutes (and one slide). Nine finalists from across our three Colleges took part in the University of Edinburgh Final 2013. The presentations were recorded on Wednesday 24 July 2013 at the University of Edinburgh's Informatics Forum. http://www.ed.ac.uk/news/2013/thesis-180713
