Gay Doctors Ireland (GDI) is an organisation of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (LGBTQ) physicians and medical students in Ireland. It was founded in Dublin by Conor Malone in 2010 as Ireland's first association for LGBT doctors.[1][2]
In April 2011, GDI announced an annual LGBT Health Research Bursary for medical students, the first of its kind in Ireland. Its purpose is to sponsor undergraduate medical students in Ireland to undertake a summer research project focussed on LGBT health.[9]
