UCC Chemistry graduate Dr Niamh O'Mahoney has been named as the 2022 recipient of the Institute of Chemistry of Ireland (ICI) Postgraduate Award. This is the first time a UCC candidate has won the award since its creation in 2018.

The ICI Postgraduate Award recognises a registered PhD student in any chemistry discipline working in an Irish Higher Education Institution.
