Fantastic to see the work of @MedvedKatarina in @BioMedCentral demonstrating how meaningful PPI was integrated throughout the design & delivery of LYSA trial, from early protocol development to dissemination, illustrating impact of involving PPI in all phases of a clinical trial.

HPAT exams taking place all weekend. Another unnecessary stress for many Leaving Cert students who are also undertaking mock exams.
This exam costs time money for students while failing to achieve the goal of ensuring an even mix of medical students.
@lawlessj time to scrap it
