What we do
We recruit and supervise young academics to develop research competencies in areas previously under-investigated in Ireland. We currently have 5 PhD students undertaking research in dementia.
The programme is based in the School of Social Work and Social Policy and whilst primarily research focused it also aims to educate and to disseminate our latest research findings.
