UCC Biomedical Science Society hosts POCT talk

UCC Biomedical Science Society hosts POCT talk
12 April 2017
The Biomedical Science Society at University College Cork organised a talk on POCT and clinical placement

Last month, IBMS student affiliate society UCC Biomedical Science Society arranged for speakers to discuss Point of Care Testing and Clinical Placement.

The following is an account of the day by society Public Relations Officer James Harte:

“We organised a fantastic talk on Point of Care Testing and Clinical Placement which welcomed two speakers, Bernadette Jackson and Stephen Power.
Bernadette spoke on Point of Care Testing, or medical testing performed at the site of patient care, a growing aspect of biomedical science: speaking on the potential benefits and pitfalls of the new technology.
Stephen Power, a past UCC Biomedical Science student currently doing his clinical placement, spoke about his experiences and what to expect, through the eyes of the students involved.
It was a wonderful evening, enjoyed by all!”
