Post by British Society for Investigative Dermatology

Applications for the British Association of Dermatologists - British Society for Investigative Dermatology Research Techniques Course open tomorrow!!! John Lee had this to say about the course: "Having attended the BAD-BSID Research Techniques Course in November 2024, I can wholeheartedly recommend it to any clinician with an interest in dermatology research. The course significantly broadened my exposure to new methods including gaining better understanding of bioinformatics and single-cell RNA sequencing analysis, as well as guided hands-on practice with wet lab methods such as flow cytometry. I believe these insights proved directly instrumental in helping me develop a successful PhD fellowship application to the MRC. I was also inspired by talks from Prof John McGrath and Ravi Ramessur on their own journeys as clinician-scientists, providing valuable perspectives that are genuinely motivating for those of us at an earlier career stage. My sincere thanks to Paola Di Meglio and the organising team for a well-rounded and thoughtfully structured course. I would encourage anyone curious about dermatology research, regardless of prior experience, to apply and make the most of this opportunity."
