Mission
Our mission is to become an international centre of excellence in blindness prevention that provides a platform for the best scientists to interact and to extend the boundaries of our knowledge.
- Catalyse the development of new interdisciplinary fields of eye health research to address the needs of society and industry and to support TU Dublin’s leadership in delivering our institutional goals.
- Build sustainable partnerships with leading academic, industrial and other stakeholders to exploit strategic opportunities for high-impact research.
- Create maximum societal impact through research that engages society, drives policy and practice reform and addresses social and economic needs.
CERI’s focus is aligned with TU Dublin’s mission to combine the academic quality of a traditional university with career-focussed learning, discovery and the application of knowledge. Our main goal is to ensure that CERI becomes a leader in blindness prevention internationally, both in its scientific research and the application of that research to industrial competitiveness. CERI is committed to delivering TU Dublin’s strategic goal of “Being a force for research and innovation”.
