Dublin Molecular Medicine Centre (DMMC) was set up in 2002, as a registed charity, to create critical mass in molecular medicine research in Dublin, Ireland. Funding was provided by the Higher Education Authority.
The objective of this initiative is to create an internationally recognised centre of research excellence by 2010. DMMC is owned jointly by the city's three premier biomedical research institutions : University College Dublin (UCD), the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) and Trinity College, Dublin (TCD). Strategic links are likely to be fostered with University College Cork and National University of Ireland, Galway to create a nationwide platform as the European Union launches the Seventh Framework Programme.

Famous quotes containing the words medicine and/or centre:
“Good medicine is bitter, but it cures illness.”
—Chinese proverb.
Confucius.
“Old politicians, like old actors, revive in the limelight. The vacancy which afflicts them in private momentarily lifts when, once more, they feel the eyes of an audience upon them. Their old passion for holding the centre of the stage guides their uncertain footsteps to where the footlights shine, and summons up a wintry smile when the curtain rises.”
—Malcolm Muggeridge (1903–1990)
