Hunterian Professorship

The Hunterian Professorship, named after the pioneering surgeon John Hunter, is one of the most prestigious accolades awarded by the Royal College of Surgeons of England (RCSE). Established in 1810, it recognises surgeons who have made significant contributions to surgical science through original research or innovation. Recipients are invited to deliver a Hunterian Lecture, an event that reflects the evolution and progress of British surgery.

History
The Hunterian Professorship was introduced under the terms of the Hunterian Trust, which was established to preserve John Hunter’s (1728-1793) anatomical collection. Since the 1810, some of the most influential figures in British surgery have received the title, including John Abernethy, Sir Frederick Treves, Thomas Spencer Wells, and Berkeley Moynihan. ==Selection Process==

The Hunterian Lecture is traditionally delivered at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, but awardees may incorporate their lecture into the programme of an appropriate national or international surgical meeting. The event is chaired by a member of the RCSE Council, and recipients receive a Hunterian Professorship Medal upon completion of their lecture. Appointments are made on the condition that recipients offer the College first-refusal publication rights in the Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. ==Notable Past Hunterian Professors==
