Academic Research Society

About

Welcome to Barts Academic Research Society (BARS)!

BARS is a student-led society committed to raise awareness and promote research opportunities. As part of that, we aim to proactively engage the student body, provide the fundamental skills and knowledge required for research, and bridge the gap between medical as well as dental students and physician-scientists for a simpler and more equal access to research at Barts and The London.

We provide support for various research-related academic tasks set by Barts and The London in the form of crash courses, lectures and workshops. Our successful Research Foundation Course will continue this year where essential academic writing techniques will be taught and you will hear from established academics' advices to help you make it into the world of research, even if you are an absolute beginner!

BARS are affiliated with the National Student Association of Medical Research (NSAMR) (http://www.nsamr.org), a national student-led organisation that aims to encourage and support students in pursuit of a career in academic medicine.
