With a mission to improve understanding, care and treatment of human disease, and enhance human health and wellbeing, research within the College is addressing complex health challenges across the pillars of the translational research spectrum in the areas that include Clinical & Healthcare Sciences, Life Sciences, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Public and Population Health Sciences.

Research in these disciplines is now core to UCC Futures, which is a transformative initiative that reimagines research and innovation across the University. Anchored in a culture of interdisciplinary collaboration, this program brings together expertise from multiple domains to tackle global challenges in ten indicative areas. The College of Medicine and Health is proud to lead four of these in the areas of Ageing and Brain Science, Children, Food, Microbiome & Health, and Medicines.

This activity is also a key driver of the College's commitment to developing an Academic Health Sciences System (AHSS) for the South West region of Ireland. 

By integrating academic excellence and research and innovation with clinical practice, the AHSS will strengthen partnerships between UCC and regional healthcare providers to improve our understanding of human health and disease and create a sustainable and patient-centered healthcare model that supports clinical trials and innovation, deliver evidence-based care, and support the development of the next generation of science and healthcare professionals.
