This was always going to happen (again). What a waste of money and so frustrating!! Why did State put €66m into a private DNA firm instead of a national genomics initiative? irishtimes.com/business/techn… via The Irish Times

Lessons learnt from Genomics Medicine Ireland: 1. Don't give your DNA / genome to a company who can sell it on. 2. Don't invest taxpayers' money in a company that is going to up sticks at the first opportunity. 3. Invest in a public national genome project. But we knew this...

Suggestions to fix Genomic Medicine in Ireland: 1. State funds national genome project. 2. State acquires Genomics Medicine Ireland / Genuity sequencing facility for national genome project. 3. State retrieves genomic data of people whose genomes have already been sequenced.

Delighted to share that PhD research conducted at my former lab EORG RCSI funded by BreastCancerIreland in collaboration with Dr. Steffi Oesterreich Adrian Lee Fergus Couch is out now! #bcbm
