Dr Bonner visited the Midlands for Science week: . The recipient schools included: Oaklands Community College, Edenderry, Portlaoise CBS and Colaiste Nano Nagle, Limerick. The talks were aimed at TY students and 6th Year students who were getting ready to select their LC subjects. These talks were aimed at educating the students about career opportunities in the STEM fields.  They were also informed of the research undertaken at our centers ( Neuroscience and Cancer) and student life in RCSI.
