MVLS Clinical Research Open Day

MVLS Clinical Research Open Day

Date: Monday 30 September 2024
Time: 09:30 - 15:30
Venue: Seminar Suite, Advanced Research Centre, University of Glasgow
Category: Open days and visits
Website: forms.office.com/e/VWgFfJAN8k

The purpose of this event is to showcase the wide range of research opportunities across the College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences within the University of Glasgow. Representatives of all eight Schools in the College will join the event. We are also excited to see presentations of ongoing research projects, exemplars of clinical academic careers and plenty of opportunities to discuss and exchange thoughts with representatives of the Deanery.

Importantly, we wish to bring trainees at different stages together. As such we particularly welcome Specialised Foundation Programme Trainees to join us on the day to facilitate exchange with other trainees and to learn about our integrated academic training programme. We also welcome MBChB students who intercalated in 2023/24, and encourage colleagues to bring a poster to share their BSc (Med Sci) work.

Morning coffee and lunch will be provided, and there will be prizes for the best poster(s) on the day! 
An outline agenda can be found here (UofG access only) and below.
