Galway Bay fm newsroom -An Taoiseach Enda Kenny will visit the city next week to officially open a major new Biomedical research facility. (Mon 28/9)
The 20 million euro Lambe Institute for Translational Research and HRB Clinical Research facility are located on the grounds of University Hospital Galway.
The Lambe Institute and the Health Research Board (HRB) clinical research facility will be opened by NUI Galway, together with the HSE and the Saolta West Northwest Hospitals group.
The two facilities will be housed in one building, and it’s hoped the move will allow clinical researchers to work together for the benefit of the patient.
The building is directly adjacent to the University’s Clinical Science Institute, UHG’s Critical care Facilities, Ward Accommodation Block and Maternity Wards.
An Taoiseach Enda Kenny will officially open the facility on Monday afternoon at 4.30.
