Are you a qualified nurse, looking for an impactful role that involves helping patients whose lives have been impacted by cancer? Do you want to join a passionate and growing team with recent funding from the Breast Cancer Research Foundation to grow and find better diagnostics and treatments for patients with breast cancer? 

The UCC Cancer Trials Group (UCC CTG) is looking for an enthusiastic research nurse (CNMII) to work in a growing team, supporting investigator-led research.

ABOUT UCC CTG:

• The UCC CTG is a new HRB funded collaborative team which aims to bring together a dedicated team of cancer specialists and research staff across the south of Ireland. The UCC CTG is part of Cancer Research @UCC, a translational cancer research centre within the College of Medicine & Health at University College Cork. The UCC CTG group includes 3 cancer trials units at Cork University Hospital (CTC @CUH), University Hospital Waterford and Bons Secours Hospital Cork. 
• For more information about the group, check our website: https://www.ucc.ie/en/cancer-research/ or our Twitter @UCCCancerTrials 

ABOUT ACADEMIC RESEARCH AT CTC @CUH:

• The role will be hosted in Cancer Research @UCC and the Cancer Trials Cork Unit at CUH (CTC @CUH) in the Breast Lung Gynaecology portfolio. The CUH unit has been in operation for close to two decades, serving a geographically diverse population of 1.2 million in the South of Ireland. This team has grown over the past few years and continued growth is projected for years to come. The CNMII will work closely under the guidance of Professor Roisin Connolly /CNM3 /Nurse Management and team members. 

As a summary, the role will include:

• Co-ordination of clinical and translational aspects of the project including direct interface with pathology department, scientific collaborators, external laboratories and data scientists etc.
• Clinical responsibilities.
• Working with pathology for slide cutting and storage, labelling etc
• Coordination of sample distribution to labs and payments/invoices for correlative studies. 
• Keeping accurate logs of the specimens and results, linking with Castor© database (study database) where relevant

Centre for Health Research Methodology 

Located within the College of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences (CMNHS) at University of Galway, the Centre for Health Research Methodology (CHRM) is renowned for its dynamism, innovation and contributions to the world of health research. With a keen focus on improving the design, conduct, reporting, and application of evidence synthesis and randomised trial findings, CHRM has positioned itself as a global leader in its domain.

In addition to championing improved research methodologies, the Centre actively engages in spearheading its own randomised trials and evidence syntheses. This hands-on approach ensures that the Centre stays at the cutting edge of advancements in healthcare research, continually pushing the boundaries of what's known and understood.

Housing three established/recognised research organisations, CHRM brings together the best of health research in Ireland:

1. HRB-Trials Methodology Research Network (HRB-TMRN): A collaborative initiative, the HRB-TMRN aims to improve the quality and impact of randomised trials. Through its network, it fosters enhanced methodologies, training, and collaboration in trials, laying the foundation for more robust and reliable clinical studies.

Similarly, we strive to bridge the gap between research and practice, ensuring access to clear and accurate health information for well-informed health choices.

We equip individuals with skills to critically evaluate health information through various resources and programmes. Example projects in these domains include The People's Trial.
