Ballot papers arriving to homes across the country this morning, the time has come for Medical scientists to have their voices heard... Time to cross the Rubicon!

Medical scientists in Cork walk the walk for their long long overdue rights

The rain doesn't dampen the spirits of Medical scientists working in the Biochemistry department who seek nothing more than parity in pay and career opportunities

Young Irish medical scientists stand tall for their workers rights in Cork

Medical scientists in Cork would like to thank the people of Cork for all their local support, encouragement and kind words in our industrial action today

Nothing less than full pay parity (point-to-point assimilation ) for Medical scientist grades where any inequality exists with Biochemists is what should be sought with government through our industrial action!

Just as important as the pay issue for Medical scientists is equal opportunities for career progression in all the pathology disciplines

Where will the funds come from to address the pay inequality? Government could dip into the €10,000,000 year on year savings accrued since 2011 when Medical scientists changed their out of hours service from fee per item to an hourly rate, that is €100,000, 000 and counting...

Medical scientist Mums out in force for fairness in the workpkace

Teidí our youngest picketer @ 7 weeks, out to support Mum and all the other Medical scientists seeking equality of pay and career prospects in the Irish medical service

My heartfelt condolences today to the family and friends of the heroic Vicky Phelan. One of the great tragedies of Vicky's death is that we still have not introduced primary and secondary testing for Cervical cancer in Ireland as the principal means for detecting this disease.
