A NEW €7.5 MILLION cancer research fund has been announced to provide grants for researchers in practical and clinical disease fighting methods.
The fund is being created as part of a partnership between the The Irish Cancer Society (ICS) and Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) with the aim of greater cooperation between higher education institutions and teaching hospitals.
The ICS say that the fund is part of a plan to support the establishment of a new Collaborative Cancer Research Centre (CCRC) which will which will focus on unmet medical needs.
The ICS’s head of research John Fitzpatrick says they are now seeking applications for the research grants:
This is a new and exciting venture that provides the platform for even greater collaboration in cancer research in Ireland, including industry and new research disciplines, which will allow more rapid translation of discoveries into benefits for cancer patients and the public.
The ICS says that it expects cancer rates to increase over the next six years and has estimated that there will be 40,000 cases a year by the year 2020.
They add that the CCRC will provide a foundation for better integration of cancer research and care for patients and help reduce the economic and social burden of cancer in Ireland.

Pay the police a pittance and they won’t try an inch.
Interesting finding given the inquiry heard no evidence from the Police. It sounds like a typical British inquiry we’ve experienced many times in Ireland. It starts with an outcome and works it’s way backwards from there to find evidence that fits that outcome.
Do you mean the units that deliberately slowed down to delay their arrival at the scene thereby giving adequate time to the murderer to carry out Allahs will
Those are hate facts.
@George Roche: Yes, apparently. And any commentary on them or on how they might possibly be related to the Tunisian attacks would really be hate opinion.
Have you read the disclaimer about bias in their results, I’d say not given your blind faith as displayed in your post citing them
And as for your claim the journal banned someone you know (most likely another of your on line identities I’m guessing) for a comment: I’d say you’ve gone the “full Trump” there, by banned you actually mean the moderator deleted a comment ? Big difference!
@Boganity: You’d be wrong on all counts.
Why is a low paid Tunisian police officer going to risk himself to protect wealthy tourists ?
Because it’s his job
@Mrs M: Poorly paid police around the world protect richer people than themselves every day amd always have done. Not everything is all about money.
It is if your a policeman in country that doesn’t provide an income to your family if you get killed on the job.
Hello.
have your say
