RCSI hosted an Innovations Exhibition on Thursday, 29 November 2012. The exhibition showcased medical and technological developments used within RCSI as part of its research, teaching and learning. The exhibition was open free of charge to the public.

The ‘RCSI Innovations' expo featured demonstrations from leading experts from our Schools of Pharmacy and Physiotherapy; as well as from the Departments of Surgery, Anatomy, Physiology & Medical Physics, Cancer Genetics, MCT and the Clinical Research Centre.

‘RCSI Innovations' was educational for both adults and students with an interest in science, health, medicine and research. Attendees were able to witness the simulation of surgical procedures, learn about the use of the Nintendo Wii Fit for physiotherapy rehabilitation, learn about nanomedicines, cardiovascular disease and craniofacial geometry to name just a few.

The RCSI Innovations exhibition is part of the Dublin City of Science 2012 Festival which is a year-long celebration of science that brings together a community of cultural institutions, organisations and individuals to showcase the best of Irish culture, arts and science.
