With more than 200 postgraduate researchers working towards MSc, PhD, or MD qualifications, the School fosters extensive academic investigation.
The School of Medicine concentrates its research efforts across six key disciplines: Cancer Studies, Genetic Research, Infectious Diseases and Immunology, Molecular Medicine, Neuroscience, and Public Health.
Investigations take place across our affiliated teaching hospitals such as St James's Hospital, the Trinity Centre at Tallaght University Hospital, and St Patrick's Hospital. A strong focus lies on Translational Research within the School, enabling scientific breakthroughs from laboratories to progress into clinical applications that enhance patient care. The Trinity Translational Medicine Institute, located at St James's, serves as a premier hub for translational studies. Cutting-edge research also occurs in advanced facilities throughout Trinity's main campus, including the Trinity Biomedical Sciences Institute and the Trinity College Institute for Neuroscience.
