A research laboratory housing the pulmonary group, headed by Joseph Keane M.B., M.D., M.R.C.P.I. (1986), at the Trinity Centre for Health Sciences in St James’s Hospital was named after a distinguished Trinity alumnus, Seamus Ó Floinn M.B., M.A. (1960), at a ceremony in June. The recently deceased Seamus P.J. Ó Floinn had an illustrious career in medicine and medical administration, subsequently becoming head of the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Centre and the Medical Officer for the Maryland National Guard.
Mary Henry M.A., M.D. (1963), Chair of the TCD Association and Trust, initiated the efforts to dedicate a laboratory in Seamus’s memory. Seamus’s wife Lacy, his brother, Rear Admiral Cathal Flynn, as well as other family and friends and colleagues from the School of Medicine attended the ceremony.

THE JOLY-O’MORCHOE EXCHANGE FELLOWSHIP
David Foley, a final year student of the School of Medicine, is the recipient of the Joly-O’Morchoe Exchange Fellowship, which was established in 2007 by Dr Charles C. C. O'Morchoe M.D. (1955).
The fellowship, which is endowed in perpetuity, is for a student exchange programme between TCD School of Medicine and the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Urbana-Champaign. It is in honour of Dr O’Morchoe’s wife, Patricia Jean O'Morchoe (née Richardson) M.D. (1955), and also in honour of his two ancestors – Charles Jasper Joly and John Joly. Both were famous scientists and professors at TCD.
DR MANNÉ BERBER LECTURE
Martyn Manné Berber M.B. (1950), a prominent and much loved general practitioner in Dublin, was the founding father of specialist training for general practitioners in the region and nationally. He died prematurely in 1988 and in 1998 a lecture was established in his honour. This year the 10th Manné Berber Lecture was given in Trinity by his nephew Philip Berber. Philip and his wife Donna founded and run A Glimmer of Hope Foundation, to which they pledged $100 million. They work to help the disadvantaged in Ethiopia, London (United Kingdom) and Austin (USA).
