Nicola Kavanagh (PhD student with Steve Kerrigan and Fergal O Brien) scooped a big award at an international conference. She was pitched against post docs and young investigators. She is only in the second year of her PhD and apparently gave a stunning presentation!
She was awarded the Robert Mathys prize for Best Research Project and Presentation at the recent eCM XVI International Conference: Bone and Implant Infections in Davos, Switzerland. This is an outstanding achievement, given that eCM is the most important meeting in the bone infection area.
