Excellent posters at the symposium also. The PharmaCareers Project is presenting 'Careers in Place', sharing some of our initial findings on women science graduates, rural location and retention in Ireland's pharma industry.

Great start to the HEI Rural Development Symposium 2026 this morning, with opening remarks from Minister of State Jerry Buttimer and an opening session from Prof Felicity Kelliher and Dr Leana Reinl of SETU Faculty of Business and Dr Noel Murray of MTU. 🧵

One of the reasons I’m so happy to be part of @pharmacareers.bsky.social is the opportunity to look beyond individual career decisions and understand the wider patterns shaping women’s working lives in Ireland’s pharmaceutical sector.
