About us
Cardiff University Research Society is a student led society which aims to improve research opportunities for medical students in Cardiff and provide them with the inspiration and information pertinent to pursuit of careers in academic medicine and surgery.

Events
Through holding a number of events each year we hope to provide a forum where students can gain information on research opp

ortunities in Cardiff, discuss their research experiences, forge contacts with academic staff and listen to eminent researchers giving advice and talking about their academic careers. CUReS will also provide students with the financial and logistical assistance to enable them to organise their own events in a field of their interest. Projects
Facilitating summer projects for students is a major aim for the society. Through forging links with the highly active research groups in the University and Medical School we will provide students with the contact details of all those willing to supervise students for summer projects or on-going clinical audit.


Conferences
We will keep you updated with the major local and national conferences that are available for you to present your research.
