TRiCC Management
TRiCC Directors
With children’s research at Trinity College Dublin crossing School and Faculty boundaries, our governance structure mirrors this interdisciplinary way of working. The Director role is shared between three Professors of Trinity College Dublin, whose appointments reflect excellence in children's research. Professor of Paediatrics, Eleanor Molloy, is the current lead Director (assumed in 2019), with Professor of Children’s Nursing, Professor Imelda Coyne and AIB Chair in Childhood Research, Professor Trevor Spratt working with her as Co-Directors. The lead Directorship rotates on a three-year cycle. The three Professors make up the Executive Committee of TRiCC, on which the TRiCC Research Coordinator also sits.
