Biobank Ireland Trust is developing a unified, federated system that links biobanks throughout the island of Ireland, encouraging collaboration and advancing cancer research. For the last 8 years, our teams of volunteers have run the Irish Life Dublin Marathon to raise the necessary funds to develop the Biobank network.
The Irish Life Dublin Marathon takes place on the 26th of October, starting in Leeson Street Lower at 8.45 am and finishes on Mount Street Upper, spanning for a total of 26.2 miles. Join our team as either a runner or walker and complete the Irish Life Dublin Marathon in under 7 hours, to make a tangible contribution to advancing cancer research and supporting the transformative work of Biobank Ireland Trust.

Introducing the Biobanking in Ireland Review and Directory, a comprehensive resource compiling detailed information on Ireland’s key biobanks, their leadership teams, research focus areas, and capabilities to support collaboration and advance scientific discovery. We will circulate this Directory in the coming months. If you are a biobank and wish to participate, please reach out to us for inclusion.
