Great news! Our spin-out company Re-Vana Therapeutics @TxVana, has secured a landmark $1 billion pharma deal that places #NorthernIreland at the forefront of cutting-edge global #MedicalInnovation. The major collaboration with pharmaceutical leader Boehringer Ingelheim @boehringerus, will see the companies jointly develop new long-acting treatments for eye disease, tackling conditions that lead to vision loss. “This landmark deal demonstrates the global impact of Queen’s research and the strength of Northern Ireland’s innovation ecosystem, highlighting the key role Queen’s plays in driving #innovation and enhancing the local economy. “Through @QubisLtd, the University’s commercial arm, we have helped create more than 100 tech spinouts, generating nearly £400 million in revenue and we are ranked second in the UK for entrepreneurial impact. Re-Vana Therapeutics success is a shining example of how Northern Ireland innovation, rooted at Queen’s, is helping to transform lives on a global scale.” (Professor Sir Ian Greer, @QUBVChancellor) Find out more: ow.ly/6GzK50WvWpl #LoveQUB | #LoveQUBResearch | #OcularDrugDelivery | #OcularTherapeutics | @NIOgov

UNIFIL statement: Early this morning, peacekeepers at a UN position in Ramyah observed three platoons of IDF soldiers crossing the Blue Line into Lebanon.

The Lemkin Institute has had it with the cynical lies and propaganda from Israel and the USA. One can have different views about the definition of genocide, but one may not use definitional disputes to deny genocide. If a genocide may be occurring, every nation is compelled by customary law to try to stop it. Let us be clear: Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. The US is complicit in genocide. These are not political statements. They are statements that are made from knowledge and experience. Nevertheless, you do not need a PhD , a law degree, or X-ray vision to see the genocidal dimensions of Israel’s carnage in Gaza. It is clear in the behavior of the state and its military, on full display in yesterday’s horrific bombardment of a Rafah camp. But even if there were legitimate doubts about Israel’s genocide, there is no doubt that Israel is committing atrocity crimes of the most barbaric kind. Israel must be stopped. Israel must be stopped now. We are disgusted by Western leaders, especially in the USA, Germany, and the UK. They have demonstrated not only that they don’t care one bit about genocide prevention and human rights, but also that they are willing to allow an ally to commit atrocity crimes while they offer material and diplomatic support. It is reprehensible and the individuals involved in this gaslighting campaign should be deeply ashamed. They should also be put on trial. Humanity has a choice: Either we decide that our children can all be killed whenever a superior force alleges that “terrorists” are among us, or we decide that under no circumstances will we allow these superior forces to lay waste to our world any longer. We each must choose and act accordingly. The watershed moment is now.

“Mura gcuirfidh tú san earrach ní bhainfidh tú san fhómhar | If you don't sow in spring you won't reap in autumn” is a firmly held belief in Gaelic Tyrone. Probably no one in our County’s GAA history has brought greater life to that belief than Art McRory, whose sudden death after a long life so well-lived has left a gnawing space in Dungannon, Tyrone, Ulster and Ireland. Art’s achievements across seven decades as a player, coach, manager, Club man, educationalist, developer, organiser, motivator, community activist, strategist, visionary, family man, and the most loyal of comrades are just unrivalled. Put plainly, Art revolutionised Tyrone GAA and in doing so made life here so much better for tens of thousands of people, people who have gone ahead of us, people who are still here, and people who have yet to come. That’s real legacy. But for all that, it’s the blessing of Art the man that we cherished. Goodness, class, style, honour, dignity, integrity, selflessness, and above all, sheer decency, were the qualities that made him so dear to us all. Our deepest sympathy goes to Colm, Ciaran and Eva, to Art’s so many friends and colleagues, to the Gaels of Dungannon, and, simply, to everyone who ever had the good fortune to connect with this wonderful man. Tyrone is now a different and lesser place without him. ‘Lúimse le Dia agus luífidh Dia liom, Éireoidh mé le Dia agus éireoidh Dia liom | I lie with God and God will lie with me, I will rise with God and God will rise with me.’ tireogha.in/art

Those 2 West Ham fans at the top of the stairs are heroes, fighting off a huge mob of AZ Alkmaar fans on their own, so they couldn’t get to the West Ham Players’ families. Well done lads! 👏
