Congratulations to Unit postdoctoral researcher Dr David Bergin on winning the Director’s Award for Public Engagement for 2020.

The Award recognises and celebrates the exemplary contributions of an individual or small collective to the Unit’s extensive Outreach programme. The Award is given annually (this being the fifth occasion), on the basis of nominations made by Unit members.

David’s Award was announced by Unit Director Professor Peter Brown at a special ceremony held last week. Professor Brown commented “It gives us all great pleasure to recognise and reward David in this way. David has demonstrated prodigious energy and enthusiasm in progressing the Unit’s work on patient and public engagement/involvement. He has provided a brilliant example for others to follow.”
