🎬🥼 ‘The People There to Catch Us’ tells the story of Tom Hope and Rachel O’Mahony, two cancer survivors patients who work alongside researchers at @CURAMdevices in @uniofgalway and UCD-led Precision Oncology Ireland, to help improve the lives of others living with the disease.
The documentary, produced by Ronan Cassidy of @CarbonatedComet and directed by Luke Brabazon, will be screened at 8 p.m. on Monday, November 13 on @RTE 1.
🗣️ Professor William Gallagher, Precision Oncology Ireland Deputy Director and Co-Lead of the All-Island Cancer Research Institute, whose own personal experience with cancer in his family continues to shape and motivate his approach to cancer research, said:
“Precision Oncology Ireland researchers are working on developing a variety of targeted approaches to diagnose and more accurately treat cancer patients based on the exact type of disease they have and their own personal biology. In the past, cancer patients were only offered generalised approaches, such as chemotherapy, to tackle their disease, often leading to significant side effects."
"Our team is working hard to find unique characteristics of certain cancers that can be used to improve patient outcomes while lessening the challenge of side effects.”
The documentary also features Professor Walter Kolch, Director of Precision Oncology Ireland Systems Biology Ireland, UCD.
