Mark Lawler Presented Cancer Innovation Strategy at Irish Parliament on Behalf of Queen’s University Belfast
Mark Lawler, Chair in Translational Cancer Genomics and the Associate Director of Postgraduate Studies at Queen’s University Belfast, shared a post on X by Queen’s University Belfast, adding:
“Delighted to speak in Irish Parliament about cancer, one of the biggest challenges of all and highlight how Queen’s University Belfast is at the fore of all island initiatives including
All-Island Cancer Research Institute, eHealth4Cancer with brilliant co-leads Liam Gallagher and Aedin Culhane.”
Quoting Queen’s University Belfast‘s post:
“Big challenges need joined-up thinking. That’s why we held a series of events in Dublin yesterday, connecting researchers, innovators and bold ideas.
These events highlighted the transformative all-island impact we’re making across Climate research, Healthcare, and business innovation.
At a showcase event in Leinster House, policymakers and academics came together to explore how collaborative, cross-border approaches can tackle some of the biggest challenges of our time – from creating a more sustainable future to ensuring equitable access to healthcare across the island.
These conversations were followed by our ‘Innovation Without Borders’ event at Royal Irish Academy. Minister for Department of Further and Higher Education, James Lawless delivered the keynote address which considered the ways in which all-island innovation could be further strengthened.
“Healthcare, Climate Change, and Economic prosperity are issues that touch lives in the present and have far reaching impacts well into the future. Our unique position within Northern Ireland provides us with strong cross-jurisdictional links that enable us to deliver on government and industry priorities and collaborate on opportunities for the betterment of all across these islands.
“Initiatives such as the Co-Centre for Sustainable Food Systems offers a unique opportunity for multiple industry and academic partners to work together to transform food systems making a real difference to people across the island.” (Professor Sir Ian Greer).
