Medical Research Council 100th Birthday Bash

Staff and students from the CIR participated in a most enjoyable Medical Research Council 100th Birthday Bash event at Our Dynamic Earth in Edinburgh on 19th Nov 2013; featuring exhibition stands representing all of Scotland's MRC Centres and Institutes, science buskers, music, birthday cake and refreshments. The event celebrated the achievements of the MRC, highlighted current aims and research strategies and strengthened relationships within the MRC community across the country. The CIR's stand proved very popular; featuring Marieke Hoeve and Donald Davidson's Micromania card game and Ahsan Akram's bronchoscopic "treasure hunt". Many thanks to all the organisers of the event.
