MRC Research Day Award Winners 2009
The Research Capacity Development successfully held the annual MRC Research Day. This year the event was held on the 14th and 15th September 2009. Young researchers delivered their work by oral or poster presentations. This was not only an opportunity for the young researchers to gain constructive critique of their work, but also to experience healthy competition for which prizes could be won. The prize winners this year are detailed in the table below.
