UL Research has previously focused on hand hygiene (well before #Covid) assessing good and bad practices across healthcare professionals, in addition to student doctors and nurses. The University Of Limerick studies can be read at the links below. independent.ie/irish-news/hea…

Ten years of collaborative work came to fruition this evening, our study is available open access in PLOS One from UL Research with Colum Dunne, Nuala, Irene Beirne, Prof. Roy K Philip, Margo Dunworth, Santosh Sharma (Ph.D.) , Bríd Minihan doi.org/10.1371/journa…

Our very own powerhouse Yvonne Young 🌈 delivering her very personal and powerful story of her son Flynn who developed Sepsis. A key message to HCWs of listening to our patients and parents a ‘ignore at your peril’ 🚨🚨#sepsis2024 @NationalQPS HSE Mid West St. John's Hospital, Limerick



This new Respiratory Virus Bulletin from HSE Health Protection Surveillance Centre (HPSC) is a must read, fantastic report. hpsc.ie/a-z/respirator…

Congratulations Colum Dunne on your formal appointment



University Of Limerick Queen's University Belfast 🎓 collaborative research using a very elegant molecular system to evaluate mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance with genes recovered from clinical bacterial isolates. This is an All-Ireland collaboration that works brilliantly doi.org/10.1093/lambio…


University Of Limerick Queen's University Belfast 🎓 HSE Mid West research looking at #AMR and specifically at the menace that is OXA-58. Gene transfer is one thing, but understanding expression of the gene in new host bacteria and its impact is another. Worth a read! doi.org/10.1093/lambio…

Best wishes to our colleague Patrick Patrick Stapleton on his new joint chair position UCC Ireland in clinical microbiology and consultant post in CUH. Our huge loss is their tremendous gain. A massive thank you for everything. Follow @HSEMidWest Irish Society of Clinical Microbiologists Sandra Broderick


The microbiology of hospital outbreaks of bacterial infection is studied extensively by University Of Limerick Queen's University Belfast 🎓 Our latest paper reports ESBL-producing bacteria from hospital wastewater pipes, and the effectiveness of common disinfectants on biofilm doi.org/10.1016/j.jhin… Journal of Hospital Infection



Check out our recent paper at the link below - another output from our successful collaboration with Colum Dunne UL School of Medicine led by lidocaine and Stephen Kelly eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…
