Trinity researchers sweep Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine Engineering Society awards

At their recent 2023 EU meeting in Manchester Professor Danny Kelly, Professor Michael Monaghan and PhD candidate Tara Ní Néill were awarded the prestigious Mid Term Career Investigator, Robert Brown Early Career Investigator, and overall 1st prize oral presentation prize respectively.

The Mid Term Career Award is an award for individuals that are within 10-20 years after obtaining their PhD, recognising an individual who has demonstrated outstanding achievements in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine research, who has set up a successful research group and demonstrated clear evidence of outstanding performance.

The Robert Brown Early Career Principal Investigator Award recognises an individual who has demonstrated outstanding achievements in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine research during the early stages of their career and who has a growing profile.

The 1st Prize Oral Presentation Award is given to the best oral presentation delivered by a PhD candidate or postdoctoral researcher (within three years of receiving their PhD).

Given that over 1000 researchers attended this event, this is a tremendous recognition of the excellent work in Biomedical Engineering taking place in Trinity’s School of Engineering through the Department of Mechanical, Manufacturing and Biomedical Engineering and the Trinity Centre for Biomedical Engineering.
