M.Sc. in Translational Oncology

Trinity College Dublin the University of Dublin

Cancer research is a significant strength at Trinity College Dublin and a major focus at its associated teaching hospitals, including St. James’s Hospital. Global cancer incidences are rising rapidly each year and research exploring the underlying causes, mechanisms of tumour progression and response to treatments are vitally important.This M.Sc. programme in Translational Oncology focuses on the cellular and molecular basis of cancer. The course also covers the scientific and clinical challenges pertinent to the management of site-specific cancers, and all aspects of cancer treatment from standard therapies to ‘individualised’ molecular targeted and immune-based therapies.
