Episode notes

Ahead of International Women's Day 2022, three female researchers in the final stages of their PhD studies joined the podcast to talk about their work, describe their motivations and chat about issues affecting women in the research world. Aisling McGrath is involved with the Men's Sheds' "Sheds for Life" project. Madhuri Dandamudi is with the Ocular Therapeutics Research Group (OTRG) at SETU and is researching alternative delivery mechanisms to injections for back-of-the-eye therapies. Orla Hayes works with the RIKON group and her area is small business marketing across the omnichannel.
