For our final video of Research Week, we are highlighting Prof. Ruth Clifford, Director of the Cancer Clinical Trials Unit (CCTU) and Consultant Haematologist at University Hospital Limerick, and Clinical Director of the LDCRC.

In this video, Prof. Clifford highlights the importance of collaborative cancer research across UL and UHL, from translational and basic science through to clinical trials, all to improve outcomes for patients in the Midwest region.

🔬 “Our patients in the Midwest region deserve access to cutting-edge clinical research, including interventional drug trials.â€

💡 “New drug trials, biomarkers, and diagnostics only come about through strong translational and basic research.â€

Her message underlines the vital role of collaboration in driving innovation, attracting new talent, and advancing cancer care locally, nationally, and internationally.
