Voluntary Work Placement for PLC course

Hey,
Hoping someone can help me with this. Come September I will be doing a year long Foundation Science course in Killester College with the hopes of going on to University to study Biology. An essential part of my course is my Work Placement Module which I must secure before I start my course but a few labs I'v sent letters to have said that they can't take me on. I'm kind of starting to panic now because the course starts in around a months time and I haven't gotten a place. I'v tried Beaumont and The Mater hospital but i'm not really sure where else I could find a biological lab. Any one got any idea's?

Any help would be gratefully appreciated

Try universities. Each one will have a whole host of labs doing different work from cancer to nanomedicine to genetics...
