@csmcnevin @CCR_AACR @stjamesdublin @tcddublin @StephenFinn @BairdAM @RCPI_news Congratulations!

Delighted to share that our paper has been published investigating the prevalence of mismatch repair in early prostate cancer doi.org/10.1158/1078-0… @CancerInstIR @CCR_AACR @stjamesdublin @tcddublin @StephenFinn @BairdAM @ICATProgramme @RCPI_news

Interested in a PhD? We have advertised a funded project on the dual @QatarUniversity @RCSI_Irl PhD programme, with @Hadi_PharmPrac @shellflood and myself @RCSIPharmBioMol. The project focuses on the benefit/risk balance of fixed-dose combination medicines using mixed methods.

Congrats to our prize winners Karen, Saied, Catherine, Brian, Katie and Bethany! A great end to a fantastic two days. Thanks to Prof Williams for closing the #ICATRetreat24 @hrbireland @NDTP_HSE @HSC_NI @_NIMDTA @agriculture_ie @COAIrl
