School of Biosystems and Food Engineering Research Review

Every year, the UCD School of Biosystems & Food Engineering produces a research review. This constitutes a 4 page paper outlining a research topic each postgraduate student is working on. This works to give experience to students within the school of writing and publishing papers, while also building the schools profile displaying the diversity of research conducted. The AmmoniaN2K has been contributing papers to this research review for the past three years.

The research review also allows students to present their work in front of an audience of peers. The 2017 award for best senior PhD speaker was awarded to AmmoniaN2K researcher David "Dáithí" Kelleghan (Pictured below). The best speaker in each category was awarded a certificate and a €100 voucher. The winners were presented with their prizes by Professor David Browne, Vice-Principal for Research, Innovation and Impact, UCD College of Engineering and Architecture in the presence of Associate Professor Enda Cummins, Head of Research, Innovation and Impact, UCD School of Biosystems and Food Engineering and co-editor of the Research Review along with Dr Tom Curran, lecturer and co-editor.
