The School boasts more than 200 postgraduate researchers working toward MSc, PhD, or MD qualifications.
Research efforts in the School of Medicine concentrate on six key thematic fields: Cancer, Genetics, Infection and Immunity, Molecular Medicine, Neurosciences, and Population Health.
Investigations take place across our affiliated teaching hospitals, such as St James's, the Trinity Centre at Tallaght University Hospital, and St Patrick's. The School places significant importance on Translational Research, where scientific breakthroughs from the lab progress into clinical applications to improve patient outcomes. The Trinity Translational Medicine Institute, located at St James's, serves as a premier hub for this research approach. Cutting-edge research facilities on Trinity's main campus, including the Trinity Biomedical Sciences Institute and Trinity College Institute for Neuroscience, also support these endeavors.
Postgraduate work in Trinity College Dublin is very academically challenging and as a result the University has high academic entry requirements. Applicants will need to hold at least a 2.1 honors degree from an Irish university or equivalent result from a university in another country; a fluent command of the English language.
