In September 2024, the University of Galway announced the establishment of the Institute for Health Discovery and Innovation, aiming to advance disease understanding and healthcare solutions. Interim Director Professor Ted Vaughan will lead over 200 researchers and academics in fields such as biomedical science and engineering, focusing on areas like cancer biology, biomedical engineering, regenerative medicine, neuroscience, diagnostics, and advanced therapeutics. The Institute will collaborate closely with the University's Institute for Clinical Trials, CÚRAM (the Science Foundation Ireland Research Centre for Medical Devices), and BioInnovate, an Enterprise Ireland fellowship program. This initiative seeks to translate fundamental scientific research into innovative treatments and interventions, aligning with SDG 3 by promoting good health and well-being through pioneering research and technological advancements.
