Emerging Irish clinician researchers will be supported in pursuing exciting cancer research projects across areas. These include lung, breast and cancer genetics. It is as part of a record €450K investment by the ICS over the next two years.

The funding is provided as part of the Society’s Clinician Research Leadership Award. The award ‘buys out’ the time of hospital-based clinicians who are at the forefront of patient care. This is so they can devote time to forward-looking research projects. It is with the aim of attracting in addition to retaining world-class oncology consultants for Ireland who will drive evidence-based advances for patients.
