Synthesis and Solid State Pharmaceutical Centre, the Science Foundation Ireland Pharmaceutical Research Centre, have announced a PhD opportunity in collaboration with Regeneron based in Limerick. This will involve experimental work on site at Regeneron, Raheen, Limerick and model development on the University of Limerick campus.
SSPC, Science Foundation Ireland Education and Public Engagement PhD Opportunity, Science Capital for Youth Equity in STEM. In Ireland, the UK and many other countries there are long-standing patterns regarding who continues with science post-16. In the physical sciences—and engineering in particular—women, working-class and some ethnic groups are notably under-represented. There are many reasons for increasing and broadening participation in science. For governments, a key issue is the importance of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) to national economic competitiveness, especially given a predicted future skills shortage.
Members of the Regeneron team came to visit the BioPoint lab facility at the University of Limerick.
