The Student Summer Research Awards
The Student Summer Research Awards Committee is pleased to invite the submission of project proposals for SSRA 2024 from November 2023. Proposals are sought for eight-week laboratory, clinical, patient-centred or educational research projects, to be undertaken by our undergraduate students within the College of Health and Agricultural Sciences during Summer 2024.
For the most part, we expect that SSRA projects will be exempt from full ethical review in UCD. Various types of projects will fall into this category. As some projects will require full ethical review by the UCD School of Medicine REC, please allow enough time for this to take place in advance of the project start date.
Further information and relevant Ethics compliance forms for the UCD School of Medicine REC can be found HERE
Please note that SSRA students may not be insured unless UCD can verify that the proper ethics protocols have been followed.
We thank you for your cooperation on this important matter.
Publications:
Have you hosted an SSRA Student in the past? We are asking past SSRA Supervisors to let us know of instances where research that their SSRA Student(s) took part in have been published. We are very interested in tracking and collating publications, either peer reviewed full research papers and review articles or conference proceedings, that past SSRA students have contributed to. You can submit this information HERE.
