Poolbeg Pharma PLC (AIM:POLB, OTC:POLBF) CEO Jeremy Skillington talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's interim results and key clinical milestones. Skillington highlighted that Poolbeg ended June with £10 million in cash, supported by an upsized and oversubscribed £4.87 million fundraise earlier in the year. He said this extends the company's cash runway into 2027, providing a strong foundation for advancing upcoming trials. One of the company's main focuses is POLB 001, which is being developed to prevent cytokine release syndrome in patients undergoing cancer immunotherapies. “We expect to have interim data in the summer of 2026 that we can start sharing with our pharma colleagues,” Skillington noted. The trial will take place at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust under Dr Emma Searle, with support from Accelerating Clinical Trials (ACT). Skillington also discussed Poolbeg's oral GLP-1 program, developed in partnership with AnaBio Technologies. This program uses an encapsulation technology to allow oral delivery of GLP-1, currently given mostly by injection. A rapid proof-of-concept trial is planned under Prof Carel le Roux at the University of Ulster, with data expected in the first half of 2026. Looking ahead, Skillington said Poolbeg is entering a “catalyst-rich period” with multiple updates expected that could attract pharmaceutical partners.

Terence O'Neill delivered his famous ‘Ulster at the crossroads' speech in December of 1968 though it appeared from the events at Burntollet in January 1969 that the people had chosen to continue along the same perilous path as before. The subsequent change in political landscape set the tone for action and reaction to social change for a generation in Northern Ireland. To help us understand the reforms and resignations which caused so many ructions within political unionism at this time I have enlisted the help and expertise of Alex Kane.Alex is the former Director of Communications for the Ulster Unionist Party. These days he is a political commentator and a columnist for several publications including the Belfast Telegraph and the Irish News. I began by asking Alex to give us a sense of Terence O'Neill's thinking when he delivered the iconic ‘Ulster at the Crossroads' speech in December 1968.This episode was produced as part of At the Crossroads: The Campaign for Civil Rights in Northern Ireland, a project developed by The Linen Hall. This project is supported by the Department of Foreign Affairs Reconciliation Fund and has also received financial support from the Northern Ireland Community Relations Council.Send us a textSupport the show

En este episodio viajamos a Irlanda para descubrir dos momentos que marcaron profundamente su historia y su identidad. Primero, exploraremos la Plantación de Ulster ✝️, un proyecto del siglo XVII que no solo cambió la demografía de la región con la llegada de colonos ingleses y escoceses, sino que sembró divisiones religiosas y sociales que resonarían durante siglos. Después nos adentramos en la tragedia de la Gran Hambruna Irlandesa , cuando una plaga arrasó los cultivos de papa y condenó a la población a la miseria, la muerte y la emigración masiva , mientras las autoridades británicas miraban con indiferencia. Un episodio lleno de choques culturales ⚔️, luchas por la supervivencia y las raíces de conflictos que aún laten en la memoria irlandesa. Acompáñanos en la aventura para descubrir que el Reino Unido... ES HISTORIA

‘Northern Ireland,' Margaret Thatcher said once, ‘is as British as Finchley'But what if Britain is as Northern Irish as Ballymena? On Free State today we look at what unites the right wing Tories and the unionist parties. Is it the racism? Is it the punching down on minorities? And what is it about the genocide in Gaza that they admire so much? In Britain Operation Raise the Colours is distracting people with arguments about flags. Where have we heard this before?But what does the Ulsterisation of Britain mean? Why are we being sucked into these wars that have no meaning when the really dangers are all around us?

A formal state ceremony takes place in Cahersiveen today to mark the 250th anniversary of the birth of Daniel O’Connell. The 19th-century Kerry politician, known as The Liberator, led the campaign for Catholic emancipation and is remembered as one of Ireland’s greatest political leaders. Jerry spoke to Professor Maurice Bric, emeritus professor of history at UCD and director of Daniel O’Connell Summer School. Jerry asked him about a charge made by Kerry historian Dr Tim Horgan that O’Connell drove a deep wedge between republican Presbyterians in Ulster and Catholics and used religion as a tool to build a political base.

In this REWIND episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Alice Maher (@Maher. Alice) Alice Maher is a prominent Irish contemporary artist whose work explores themes of identity, gender, mythology, and the body. Born in 1956 in County Tipperary, Maher studied at the University of Ulster, Belfast, and the San Francisco Art Institute. Her practice spans a wide range of media, including drawing, sculpture, photography, installation, and film. Maher is known for using unconventional materials such as hair, nettles, thorns, and animal organs, challenging traditional boundaries between nature and culture, the beautiful and the grotesque. Her art frequently references Irish folklore, literature, and feminist theory, creating deeply symbolic and often unsettling imagery. Works like The Axe (and the Waving Girl) and Mnemosyne reflect her interest in memory, transformation, and the female experience. In addition to her visual work, Maher has collaborated with writers, musicians, and performers, enriching her practice with interdisciplinary influences. She represented Ireland at the São Paulo Bienal in 1994 and has exhibited widely in major galleries, including the Irish Museum of Modern Art. Maher remains a vital figure in contemporary art, both in Ireland and internationally.

This is a comprehensive history of the Gribbin (Gribben/Gribbon) family. The author traces his own family line back to the early nineteenth century, setting it within the context of the wider Gribbin family story. He then tracks back through time to pinpoint Gribbins wherever they appear in the record. He has trawled the available sources, compiling the data in order to establish where all the Gribbins of the world were living during the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries (mostly in Ulster is the short answer), what they were doing and their socio-economic status. He is particularly keen to record any distinctive detail which might bring these Gribbin ancestors to life for the reader. In the process, we learn the history of Ulster and of those who emigrated from it; the politics, the wars, the tribulations and the daily lives of Gribbins down through the centuries. We trace their movements, their involvement in politics and how social/political change affected them. This is a rich tapestry which includes small Catholic farmers, Protestant industrialists, reforming doctors, learned scribes, soldiers and rebels, reformers and priests, all of them caught up in the turbulent whirlwind of Irish history.

The Author Events Series presents Paul Muldoon | Joy in Service on Rue Tagore: Poems REGISTER In Conversation with Daisy Fried Since his 1973 debut, New Weather, Paul Muldoon has created some of the most original and memorable poetry of the past half century. Joy in Service on Rue Tagore sees him writing with the same verve and distinction that have consistently won him the highest accolades. Here, from artichokes to zinc, Muldoon navigates an alphabet of image and history, through barleymen and Irish slavers to the last running wolf in Ulster. The search involves the accumulated bric-a-brac of a life, and a reckoning along the way of gains against loss. In the poet's skillful hands, ancient maps are unfurled and brought into focus--the aggregation of Imperial Rome and the dismantling of Standard Oil, the pogroms of a Ukrainian ravine and of a Belfast shipyard. Through modern medicine and warfare, disaster and repair, these poems are electric in their energy, while profoundly humane in their line of inquiry. Paul Muldoon was born in County Armagh in 1951. He now lives in New York. A former radio and television producer for the BBC in Belfast, he has taught at Princeton University for thirty-five years. He is the author of fourteen previous collections of poetry, including Moy Sand and Gravel, for which he won the 2003 Pulitzer Prize. Daisy Fried is the author of five books of poetry: My Destination (forthcoming next year from Flood Editions and Carcanet Press), The Year the City Emptied, Women's Poetry: Poems and Advice, My Brother is Getting Arrested Again, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle, and She Didn't Mean to Do It. She has been awarded Guggenheim, Hodder and Pew Fellowships. A core faculty member in the MFA Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College, and an occasional poetry critic for the New York Times, Poetry Foundation and elsewhere, she has lived in Philadelphia for decades, but will be moving to San Francisco at the end of the summer. The 2024/25 Author Events Series is presented by Comcast. Because you love Author Events, please make a donation when you register for this event to ensure that this series continues to inspire Philadelphians.

Born and raised in Zimbabwe, Dave moved to the UK in high school and went on to carve out a dominant career with Exeter Chiefs, winning back-to-back Premiership titles and becoming one of the most feared ball carriers in the game. After a stint with Ulster, he made a move back to the southern hemisphere, joining the Stormers in Cape Town.In this episode, we dive into life growing up in Zimbabwe, the cultural shift of moving to the UK, his incredible run with Exeter, and his decision to move to Cape Town. We also get personal — talking about life after rugby, retirement plans, and his friendship with Steven and Aimee Kitshoff.

In Ballymena this week, those who have come from abroad to make their lives in the town were putting union jacks in the window in the hope it would prevent them being attacked.In the random and brutal rioting that saw the homes and businesses of foreigners attacked and terrorised this was they did to protect themselves and their families. On Free State today, Joe and Dion ask what is the root cause of this savagery which the police described as feral. Is it hatred or fear, supremacy or inferiority? Joe looks at how hate has been transferred from nationalists to other minorities - with plenty held back for nationalists too and projects like Casement Park. Hosted on Acast.

The people on the borders have been forgotten and left out of the story of the partition of Ireland. Donegal, Cavan and Monaghan, the three lost counties of Ulster, are both a source of shame and embarrassment for the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. They are an unrecognized minority within the largely homogenized Catholic nation of Ireland. They are also the abandoned kin of the people of the six counties of Ulster that comprise Northern Ireland. Listen to University College Dublin Professor Edward Burke, author of Ulster's Lost Counties: Paramilitarism and Loyalism since 1920, and find out why we can't understand the story of the partition of Ireland without including the lost counties.
William Rufus DeVane King was born on April 7, 1786, in Sampson County, North Carolina. His ancestry reached back to some of the earliest European settlers in the Southern colonies. His father, William King, was of Irish descent, with ancestors believed to have emigrated from Ulster to the American colonies in the early 1700s. The King family settled in North Carolina, became landowners, and took part in the political and agricultural life of the region. His grandfather, also named William King, is believed to have fought in the colonial militia during the French and Indian War. William's mother, Margaret DeVane, belonged to a family of French Huguenot and English lineage. The DeVanes had settled in the Carolinas in the early 18th century, escaping religious persecution and bringing with them traditions of independence and agricultural skill. Margaret's father, John DeVane, was a planter and a patriot during the American Revolution. The King and DeVane families were both known for civic involvement, and together, they provided a strong foundation of wealth, status, and public service that would influence William's future path.

When King James VI of Scotland became James I of England, he brought sweeping changes to the Anglo-Scottish Borders and Ulster that few today connect to the collapse of kin-based society in the Scottish Lowlands. In this episode, we explore how the brutal suppression of the Border Reivers, combined with the Ulster Plantation, disrupted centuries-old clan ties, dismantled local power structures, and reshaped Lowland identity.MyHeritage 14-day Free TrialLet me know if you're interested in the Scottish Clans tour of Scotland, a Clandanna, or a Battle Shirt!Email me: thescottishclans@gmail.comScottish Clans WebsiteSupport Scottish Clans on Patreon
