TrephineA trephine (pronounced "tra-'fine") is the surgical instrument that has traditionally been used to remove bone from the skull. It is now sometimes used to remove bone marrow biopsies — patients typically have this crude instrument screwed into their iliac crest until a core of bone is extracted.
Established in 1941, Trephine is the premiere annual publication and year book of the UQMS. It contains reports from the Executive, Photo's from every event, as well as articles on topics central to life as a medical student. Most significantly it contains the infamous Trephine Profiles — personal portfolios on MBBS II students submitted by one's peers. Second Years, information about how to submit your profile will be coming soon.
Profiles are usually written about you by your friends. You could write it yourself but that might be considered lame.
