New update from SOLACE: Ireland’s GP‑led #lungcancer screening pilot is getting positive early feedback.
📍 Mobile low‑dose CT units in local areas
📍 Primary care referrals
📍 Community‑based care
Co‑led by Prof. Patrick Redmond it’s a practical example of how screening can work. LuCE is a consortium member of SOLACE.

Plenty of ideas to bring home (and a visit to the Infinity Bridge). Delighted to confirm that the next ICSN meeting will take place in Ireland 🇮🇪 — look forward to welcoming the international screening community. @PRiCAN_Research
Back from a packed #ICSN2025 in Aarhus. We presented preliminary modelling from our @hrbireland funded LCS research in Ireland. Highlights included @petersasieni on MCED trials, strong representation from the Erasmus team on modelling & excellent engagement from our own @NSShse

Honoured to have won the medal for research skills excellence at the 6th National Academic Track Showcase yesterday. Huge thanks to my supervisor @PatrickNRedmond for his continued support and encouragement over the years in the @RCSI_GP and @PRiCAN_Research groups.
Incredible to think there's this mobile screening unit just rocking up to community spaces providing #screening for #lungcancer. Such a common cancer that's often diagnosed at later stage, what an opportunity for #earlydetection! 😀👏 If you're in the area go for it! 🙏
Flying home from the @eucanscreen meeting in Turin. Great to meet Irish&EU colleagues coordinating progress across Europe on cancer screening.Thanks to Marcis Leja and the Latvian team for their leadership. Timely as we prepare to launch @lung_check_ie pilot with @IrishCancerSoc
Just finished a fantastic few days at #CaPRI2025 in Manchester—excellent discussions on early diagnosis, risk prediction, and primary care innovation. Thanks to Sam Merriel and the organising team for a well-run event (and the sunshine!).Well done @PRiCAN_Research team.
Excited to speak in Croke Park @businessposthq inaugural All-Island Cancer Summit on 14th May. I'll be highlighting the huge opportunity for cancer research & care on the island when we work together. We need to compete, not against each other, but against our common enemy
Great few days hosted by the @OECI_EEIG#CCI4EU team in Brussels. Different teams from Ireland and around Europe sharing experiences. Lots of interest in our @BreakthroCancer funded programme at @PRiCAN_Research in @RCSI_Irl on early detection & designing new pathways.
