We were delighted to welcome Liam, Hannah and Frank three team members from Turas Nua to the Irish Equine Centre recently to explore work placement opportunities.

It was a pleasure to showcase the breadth of work across our laboratories and to discuss the skills, experience and pathways involved in veterinary diagnostics. Initiatives like this are an important part of supporting people back into the workforce and highlighting the diverse careers available within the scientific and animal health sectors.

We look forward to continuing to work with Turas Nua and supporting future opportunities for engagement and development.
