We are incredibly proud to announce that University of Galway is to be the HQ for a new €34 million investment in healthcare technology solutions under @Researchirel ARC Hub programme - Accelerating Research to Commercialisation.
The announcement was made today by Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, James Lawless T.D.
The ARC Hub for HealthTech is being led by University of Galway, in partnership with @atu_ie and @RCSI_Irl and starts with 23 research-led innovation projects selected for their strong potential to improve patient outcomes.
The landmark funding investment of €34.3 million is provided by the Government of Ireland and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) to position the Northern and Western Region as a national and international leader in MedTech and connected health innovation.
The ARC Hub for HealthTech brings together clinical and commercial expertise, cutting-edge research and regional networks to develop impactful solutions to tackle chronic disease. Its focus will be on smart implants, advanced wearable medical devices, novel sensors and AI- and machine learning-driven modelling.

Delighted to see the results of our priority setting partnership in adults living with type 1 diabetes published. Great Irish-UK work done to bring the most important research questions to the forefront! Sincere thanks to all those who participated! doi.org/10.1111/dme.15429
📢NEW LAB PAPER - early & open access in Advanced Functional Materials @AdvSciNews
A collaboration with Endowave, a @BioInnovate_Ire spin out & Prof @aoifelowery lab @CancerUniGalway
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
We built a 3D lung tumour model to test their novel ablation device
the study was led by Research Fellows Drs Laura Gallagher & @TapasMitra18. In terms of scale, these were close to 30mLs of gel per model - a major biomaterial & cell culture effort. Detailed heat mapping & microscopy followed to reveal ablation patterns
A huge thanks for @Entirl & the DTIF programme for funding our collaboration, it was really cool to see how industry & academic engagement yielded a test bed system that can be utilised for various ablation devices & cancer types. We are open to collaboration
