RCSI MILLIN MEETING 2022
MESSAGE OF WELCOME
It gives me great pleasure to invite you to the annual
celebration of the Royal Charter of 1784 and in doing
so extend a warm welcome to RCSI’s Fellows, Members,
alumni, faculty, staff, students and healthcare colleagues.
Last year, COVID-19 forced cancellation of a face to face
celebration but instead a successful virtual meeting was
held that reached over 4000 registrants in 54 countries.
This year the Charter Meeting was planned to incorporate
the Millin meeting and the Charter Day Meeting
traditionally held close to the 11th February, the date of the
first Charter.
As you can imagine, the recent surge in COVID cases
forced changes such that the Charter Meeting has been
postponed to April 21-22 in the expectation that an in
person would be possible. Fortunately the recent surge
in the omicron variant of COVID appears to have passed
and with the easing of restrictions, I am delighted that the
Millin meeting will go ahead on Friday 4th February as a The session will also be addressed by Professor Mike

2022 BOSCO O’MAHONY LECTURER
Professor Deborah McNamara is a Consultant General & Colorectal Surgeon
at Beaumont Hospital, Dublin; Clinical Professor in Surgery at the Royal College
of Surgeons in Ireland; Co-Lead of the National Clinical Programme for Surgery
and a member of Council at RCSI. She chairs the Rectal Cancer Leads Group of

role as Co-Lead at NCPS, she works with colleagues in all surgical specialties

JOHN BOSCO O’MAHONY (1948 – 2008)
Mr John Bosco O’Mahony FRCSI MRCP (UK) was one of the longest serving members of the Council
of RCSI, being elected by his peers for almost twenty years consecutively. His untimely death on the
29th July 2008 left a void for the College, where he served on Council since 1989, and for the people of
Wexford, where he was Consultant Surgeon since July 1984 in Wexford General Hospital. Bosco was
a man of exceptionally high intelligence as proved by his many personal and academic achievements.
He was Head-boy and Gold medalist at Rockwell College and won a scholarship to study medicine in
University College Dublin, graduating in 1972. He completed his internship at St Vincent’s University
Hospital and was awarded his MRCP (UK) before concentrating on his career in surgery. His post
graduate training took him to St Thomas’s Hospital in London and subsequently to Brigham and
Women’s Hospital and Harvard University in Boston USA, where he completed his research training. His
greatest legacy will be his human touch. He understood people and their needs and worked extremely
hard over the years in his profession. He was a great teacher and mentor of his junior colleagues and
developed many long standing relationships with his trainees. He was awarded the Silver Scalpel in 2007
by the Higher Surgical Trainees in recognition of his talents.
