MMI Courses & Workshops

Molecular Medicine Ireland Courses and Workshops are available to all those interested in biomedical research in the MMI partner institutions NUI Galway, TCD, UCC, UCD, RCSI, and their affiliated teaching hospitals.

MMI Courses are part of postgraduate research training in MMI partner institutions. Postdoctoral workers, technical staff, academic staff and clinical staff should feel free to use MMI Courses in a flexible way, attending individual sessions of interest. Please note however that certificates are only given to those who have attended all the sessions of a MMI Course.

We open application for selected MMI Courses & Workshops beyond MMI partner institutions, e.g. to researchers throughout Ireland or internationally. Where this is the case for a particular course or workshop, it is clearly indicated. If you are interested, but are not sure whether you are eligible to attend a particular course or workshop, please contact us for clarification (email education@MolecularMedicineIreland.ie) before you apply online.

For more information see our Frequently Asked Questions or email education@MolecularMedicineIreland.ie

Selection Process

The number of places on a course is limited by the capacity of the lecture theatre or training room and/or equipment and instructor availability for practical courses. Places are decided either on a first-come-first-served basis, or via a selection process if the latter is considered more equitable (e.g. to ensure that limited training places do not go to a minority of laboratories or a single institution).

We need your feedback

When you attend a MMI Course or Workshop, please complete and return the questionnaire(s) provided. Your responses help us to improve existing, and develop new, Courses and Workshops.

Course presentations

We are aware that many MMI Course attendees would like a copy of each presentation prior to or during a course. Our experience to date is that this is extremely difficult to achieve in the case of these advanced courses, where instructors often modify their presentations shortly before giving lectures. At present, we do try to get an abstract of each lecture on the website before we invite applications for a MMI Course.
Unfortunately, we are unable to make all the presentations available after a course. This is due to various factors, including the presence of unpublished data and copyright restrictions. When lecturers have indicated to their audience that presentations will be made available, the MMI directorate makes every effort to obtain the presentations, and they are made available to course attendees as soon as we receive them.
