StAR Doctor of Medicine (MD) Programme

"This has been an outstanding research opportunity under experts in the​ fields of epilepsy and genetics, who have been very supportive and ​ encouraging throughout. It would not have been possible without the ​ financial support and protected research time provided by the private ​hospital, and RCSI, who provide an incredible learning/teaching ​ environment for StAR MD scholars."

"The StAR team were incredibly supportive throughout the MD programme. I found the six-monthly​ progress reviews to be invaluable in providing structured feedback and guidance. They also​ provided an opportunity for learning and sharing common challenges with fellow MD scholars."​

“The StAR MD scholarship programme offered me the perfect blend of protected research time, consumables funding and salary. The StAR MD team were incredibly helpful and gave me the platform to discuss and improve my work through regular updates and presentations."

"The MD StAR programme offers learning opportunities of exceptional quality in a ​supportive research environment, with quality supervision and shared practice.”
