Pharmacy Research Day 2024: A Day of Collaboration and Learning

Our third annual Pharmacy Research Day, held on Tuesday 3 September 2024 in the Pharmacy Building, highlighted the impressive research and talent within the School of Pharmacy.
The day featured a diverse range of research presentations, all aimed at advancing healthcare through improvements in treatments, drug formulations, delivery methods, and healthcare processes.
We would like to extend our thanks to Dr Katie Ryan for organising and John Downey for photographing the event.
