Olivia gets a look at C-TRIC
Ulster University has been showcasing the world-leading research taking place at C-TRIC in an attempt to encourage more young people to consider the career opportunities stratified medicine has to offer.
A two-day event, hosted at the University’s Altnagelvin site, gave school pupils an insight into the work carried out by researchers at the Centre for Stratified Medicine and offered the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the field.

The Centre for Stratified Medicine recently achieved top ranking in the UK-wide Research Excellence Framework as part of Ulster University’s Biomedical Sciences Research Institute.
