Annual report by Trinity College Institute of Neuroscience in 2007

View on DRI

Context

University College Dublin Foundation received funding from The Atlantic Philanthropies for a project called National Discourse, which became known as We the Citizens, a democratic participatory project to ignite citizen involvement in democracy in Ireland. The academic team involved in the independent project includes academics from University College Dublin, Dublin City University, Trinity College Dublin, and University College Cork. Involving a national and international scientific advisory bord, We the Citizens tested whether a more participatory form of democracy could work in Ireland at a time when people felt adrift and disconnected from power. In late 2012 the Irish government established the Convention on the Constitution, which followed many of the procedures spearheaded by We the Citizens.

In 2001, Trinity Foundation was given €13,460,000 for a project titled Neuroscience Institute. With this funding the foundation was to support Trinity College Dublin’s [TCD] Institute of Neuroscience and the National Neuroscience Network so as to provide fifty percent of TCD's funding in excess of €31,700,000, under Cycle 3 of the Programme for Research in Third Level Institution.
