Note: Image represents preliminary findings.Data not published. Instrument used to produce the image: Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope(CLSM)
The Research Ireland Rinn Centre for BioPharmaceutics at UCD offers a 4-year funded PhD position in Professor David Brayden’s lab (UCD School of Veterinary Medicine & Conway Institute). The research focuses on oral peptide administration using a novel cell-penetrating peptide, developed in collaboration with Professors Helen McCarthy (QUB) and Nick Dunne (DCU).
