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:
“We gave ‘em wings to fly and they rained death on us. We gave ‘em a voice to be heard around the world and they preach hatred to poison the minds of nations. Even the medicine we gave them to ease their pain is turned into a vice to enslave half mankind for the profit of a few. Ah, Janet, dear, don’t you see? Every gift that science has given them has been twisted into a thing of hate and greed.”
—Karl Brown (1897–1990)
“Here in the centre stands the glass. Light
Is the lion that comes down to drink. There
And in that state, the glass is a pool.
Ruddy are his eyes and ruddy are his claws
When light comes down to wet his frothy jaws”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
