Professor Nick Maynard is a British surgeon who has visited Gaza every year since 2010 with the charity Medical Aid for Palestinians to provide medical training. He has also led medical missions since December 2023 to hospitals in Gaza. He has spoken widely in the press about the current situation the Palestinians are facing. The experience is focused on Gaza but the talk will cover what health workers and health systems face during conflict and war.
