🎬🥼 ‘The People There to Catch Us’ tells the story of Tom Hope and Rachel O’Mahony, two cancer survivors patients who work alongside researchers at @CURAMdevices in @uniofgalway and UCD-led Precision Oncology Ireland, to help improve the lives of others living with the disease. The documentary, produced by Ronan Cassidy of @CarbonatedComet and directed by Luke Brabazon, will be screened at 8 p.m. on Monday, November 13 on @RTE 1. 🗣️ Professor William Gallagher, Precision Oncology Ireland Deputy Director and Co-Lead of the All-Island Cancer Research Institute, whose own personal experience with cancer in his family continues to shape and motivate his approach to cancer research, said: “Precision Oncology Ireland researchers are working on developing a variety of targeted approaches to diagnose and more accurately treat cancer patients based on the exact type of disease they have and their own personal biology. In the past, cancer patients were only offered generalised approaches, such as chemotherapy, to tackle their disease, often leading to significant side effects." "Our team is working hard to find unique characteristics of certain cancers that can be used to improve patient outcomes while lessening the challenge of side effects.” The documentary also features Professor Walter Kolch, Director of Precision Oncology Ireland Systems Biology Ireland, UCD. @PrecisionOncIre @WaterfordMafia @scienceirel @UCD_Conway @sysbioire 🖼️ 'The Vitruvian: Uncovering the Layers of Cancer' exhibition (below) will also take place next week, as part of Science Week in Eske Arts Arts Centre, Tullamore from 12-15 Nov and @DundrumTC from 16-19 Nov.
🖼️👩‍🎨 As part of the upcoming Science Week 2023, an exhibition by Irish artist Vincent Devine entitled ‘The Vitruvian: Uncovering the Layers of Cancer’ will be on display in Dublin and Offaly. Inspired by the iconic drawing of ‘The Vitruvian Man’ by artist and scientist Leonardo da Vinci, Vincent has created a striking image of an androgynous human to visually map the different perspectives and approaches that researchers use to understand cancer at molecular, cellular, tissue and human levels. Having met with 15 cancer researchers, technical staff and patient voice partners, they explored how cancer affects patients and their families, how research undertaken in the UCD Conway Institute may ultimately help patients, and how technology platforms within the Institute support this research. The exhibition will include derivative and interactive components that sit alongside the main work to delve deeper and explore specific cancer research areas. The derivative components are the artist’s interpretation of the research while the interactive components are scientific objects relating to ongoing research. Together, the work depicts the journey of cancer cells through the body alongside the human experience of cancer. 🔗 sfi.ie/research-news/news/sc…

Great to see this @ScreenScience documentary coming to fruition. The seeds were sown in Galway in February 2020, before Covid stopped it in its tracks. A lot of great teamwork behind the scenes to get to this point, such an achievement to be selected for @GalwayFilm 👏
