My name is Thendral Manickam. I am currently an unaccredited general surgical registrar at Eastern Health in Victoria. I aspire to have a career in general surgery and have an interest in breast and endocrine and colorectal surgery. I am particularly drawn towards the rapidly growing and dynamic field of breast cancer research in surgery. Additionally, I am involved in teaching medical students at Eastern Health and am very passionate about procedural medicine. I hope to advance my knowledge and skills in surgery in the near future and contribute to current research and advancements in cancer surgery.
