Third Level Activities RCSI Undergraduate Research Summer Studentships This programme provides a unique education experience over the summer months for our young talented students (RCSI, Medical University of Bahrain & Penang Medical College, Malaysia only). Our students are encouraged to gain hands-on experience of the challenges that come with conducting research work under the guidance of RCSI clinicians and scientists. The student’s summer research is presented at Research Day (see below). There are a series of undergraduate student research workshops & journal clubs run over the summer months to enhance their research experience. For further details and applications RCSI students should look at this website.
This year we ran an Images of Science Competition sponsored by Medical Supply Company. The overall winner won €1,500 towards a laptop or digital camera of their choice. The runners up won a mounted canvas print of their entered image. The standard of entries was very high and the competition fierce, our four judges had a hard time determining which were their favourites. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who entered and to congratulate our overall winner and our 11 runners up. These 12 winning images will be incorporated into a Research Wall Planner that will be distributed to all researchers interested shortly. To view the winning Images of Science 2007 please click here.
RCSI annually hosts Research Day where all research staff and students alike partake in presenting their work to the rest of the college either orally or by poster. During the poster sessions we permit a limited number of company stands in the same area as the posters and in this way the staff & students can interact with the companies directly. Last year several projects were reported in various Irish newspapers. Media or companies interested in attending Research Day 2009 please contact us at outreach@rcsi.ie.
