Prof. Suzanne Timmons awarded Researcher of the Year
Congratulations to Prof. Suzanne Timmons who was jointly awarded Researcher of the Year
2025 at the University College Cork (UCC) Research and Innovation Awards, held at the Lewis Glucksman Gallery on Wednesday, May 27th 2026.
Prof. Timmons is an exemplar of a joint HSE-UCC appointee whose research in complex Parkinson's disease in older people, Parkinson’s-dementia overlaps, and delirium has a significant impact on policy, practice, and research capacity in UCC, Ireland, and beyond. In 2025, she received €4 million funding from the Higher Education Authority’s North-South Research Programme for PD-Life, the first ever national research consortium for Parkinson’s disease.
