View Vol. 2 (2021): UCC Student Medical Journal

The second edition of the SMJ was released in 2021. The onset of the pandemic marked a despondent time for most of us, and the second edition of the Student Medical Journal brings with it the transition to another year of hope and prosperity. The journal team believes that nothing marks a better illustration of transition than the renaissance period. Likewise, medical research has always been an intimidating and an out-of-reach concept. We hope that through this publication, we can further encourage student involvement in research and lift uncertainties in young researchers.
