UMass Medical signs deal with Dublin's Trinity College

The University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester and the medical school at Trinity College Dublin are strengthening their decade-long collaboration.

The schools signed a strategic partnership allowing for medical student exchanges, postdoctoral fellow training in biomedical research, and the development of collaborative research and education initiatives, Trinity College said Wednesday.

In the statement, UMass Medical Chancellor Dr. Michael F. Collins said the school actively seeks out international partners in order to enhance its educational offerings and research program, and elevate its global profile. “Our partnership with Trinity College Dublin best exemplifies the type of academic partnerships we hope to enter into, and we very much look forward to a long-lasting and mutually beneficial relationship,” he said.

For years, the two medical schools have had a research relationship involving collaborations and joint grants in the field of innate immunity. Trinity also has strong links with Boston College in the arts and humanities, and Harvard University in engineering.
