Congratulations to @Lorrainesmith_1 presenting her work from @Surgery_TCD @CancerInstIRE @stjamesdublin on electroporation in the management of dysplastic Barrett’s oesophagus - interesting insights on the abscopal effect - well done Lorraine!👏

[All Ireland Cancer Network (AllCaN) Oesophageal @AllCaN_BCR]

@Lorrainesmith_1's research explores how tiny electrical pulses help calcium enter cells, as a promising, less toxic way to treat Barrett’s Oesophagus and potentially stop its progression to cancer. Exciting steps toward better therapies! 💡⚡🔬 https://t.co/zVd5oHWm6C

Landmark study published! A national Barrett’s Oesophagus Registry, led by @CancerInstIRE , @tcddublin & @stjamesdublin, shows how expert endoscopy, pathology & therapy can detect high-risk disease early and prevent cancer progression. Read more: Annals of Surgery

Fair play to Stephen, Maggie, Grace and Cian who will be taking part in the Oesophageal Cancer Fund (OCF) abseil at Croke Park this Friday to raise vital funds for oesophageal cancer research and patient support activities! You can support the team here - https://t.co/8YhwWwaHrD

Immune checkpoint signalling in Barrett’s oesophagus, the focus of Mr. Sam Cahill's research, offers promising avenues for immunotherapy for preventing oesophageal cancer progression. Intriguing work that really sets the stage for precision interventions.

Acid-suppressing medication, ablation, surgery, fundoplication and vigilant monitoring; @Lorrainesmith_1 lays out how these approaches aim to prevent progression to oesophageal cancer. An insightful and essential read. 🔬

[Dr Martin Barr @MartinBarr10]

A momentous day for @CancerInstIRE @stjamesdublin @tcddublin on the launch of its designation as the first @OECI_EEIG Comprehensive #Cancer Centre in #Ireland

[Jessie Elliott @JessieAElliott]

A phenomenal achievement and testament to the work of so many, the brilliant @CancerInstIRE team led by @ProfJohnKennedy @MaeveLowery and wider @tcddublin @stjamesdublin community who came together around this shared mission to drive improved care for our patients @IrishCancerSoc

[Trinity St James's Cancer Institute @CancerInstIRE]

The Trinity St James’s Cancer Institute has become the first & only cancer centre in Ireland to be accredited as a Comprehensive Cancer Centre. This achievement marks a significant undertaking by @tcddublin & @stjamesdublin who jointly established the @CancerInstIRE.

What Do We Know About Oesophageal Adenocarcinoma in Younger People❓

In her new blog, our QUB-based PhD Candidate Ms. Abigail Jeyaraj shares how she will set out to offer some insight into answering this question for her PhD research project. ✍️

Delighted to share my research on world Barrett's Oesophagus day! 👩‍🔬

[Carmel Doyle @CarmelDoyle1]

Great story on Barrett’s Oesophagus, link with oesophageal cancer, why knowing the symptoms of ONGOING heartburn/reflux, early detection, research and minding your gut health really works #WorldBarrettsDay Thanks to @IMT_latest @OesophagealCF @JacinthaOS @PrecisionOncIre

[Jessie Elliott @JessieAElliott]

Congratulations to @nicraftery who presented at the European Surgical Association yesterday in Geneva on grading of dysplasia in Barrett’s and long-term progression. Thanks to all involved in this significant body of work. @OesophagealCF @ICATProgramme @CancerInstIRE @TrinityMed1

[Dr. Joanne Masterson @TheMastersonLab]

Congrats Olga Fagan Superstar MD student 💫

Important update on the #RareDisease that is very much a growing problem in Irish adults, Eosinophilic Esophagitis #EoE #allergy

Gratitude to collaboration between @MaynoothUni & @stjamesdublin & to @hrbireland for supporting this.

[Clinical & Experimental Allergy @ClinExpAllergy]

Eye-opening study on Eosinophilic Oesophagitis in Irish adults! 🇮🇪

Real-world oesophageal biopsy approaches in EoE are often suboptimal and may contribute to delayed diagnosis.
