Our story

More than a decade of student research

About INSPIRE

Where it began

For more than a decade, INSPIRE has brought together medical students who are interested in research. It began as a way for students to share their work, learn from clinicians and researchers, and discover that research is something they can take part in long before they qualify.

Where it began

Across the region

INSPIRE has historically connected medical students across Leicester, Nottingham and East Anglia. In 2026 the conference is hosted in Lincoln, in collaboration with the participating medical school community.

Today

Today INSPIRE is both an annual conference and a wider academic community. The conference changes host and theme each year; the mission stays the same.
