"I highly recommend the UREKA MolRec programme to anyone considering a career in the sciences or research. The programme is an incredible opportunity that provides you with an original project supplemented with lectures and workshops that will better prepare you for a career in research or post-grad education. Not only that, Galway City is a beautiful and well-cultured place to live and learn. This programme is brilliant. I left Ireland having gained so much new knowledge, personal growth, new friends and mentors, and countless unforgettable memories."

"If I learned anything at the National University of Ireland, Galway in my assigned lab besides the obvious laboratory skills and amazing exposure to biochemical research, it is the importance of networking. The people I met there are the people who will be leaders in the field of science in the future and keeping communication with these talented scientists has become a priority whether it be my colleagues, my mentor, my program coordinator or even someone who I conversed with during a seminar. I thank the UREKA MolRec programme for providing me with this opportunity to excel my aspirations, as well as experience world recognized culture and lifestyle. I came back home with a wonderful experience, and a camera filled with unforgettable memories."
