Hugh Mohan Wins Runner-Up Prize in DCU's Annual 'Tell It Straight' Competition


Hugh Mohan, a final-year PhD student in the Giordani Group, delivered an exceptional presentation at the DCU Tell It Straight Final on March 5th and earned the Runner-Up Prize. His PhD research focuses on using boron and nitrogen-doped carbon nano-onions as nanocarriers to enhance breast cancer therapy.

The event, held at Dublin City University, challenges researchers to present their work in an accessible way to a general audience.

The entire Giordani Group attended the event to support him and celebrate his achievement. Hugh’s success not only highlights the importance of his research but also showcases his remarkable ability to communicate complex science to the public.  Congratulations Hugh!
