Evelyn O’ Sullivan Greene

Oncology Research Nurse Specialist/CNM2

I am the Team Lead of the Cancer Clinical Trials team in the Bons. My role is extremely varied. I am responsible for setting up clinical trials within the Bons, the overall management of the unit and of course, managing the care and treatment of patients who participate in clinical trials. I qualified as a Paediatric and General Nurse in 2017, commenced my Masters in Clinical Trials with UCC in 2018 and graduated from that Masters with a first class honours in 2021. I commenced work in the Bons Cancer Clinical Trials team in 2019 as a Research Nurse and commenced the role of Team Lead (CNM2) in April 2021. I am passionate about clinical trials as it provides patients with an option which they may not be able to receive otherwise and I have seen the difference clinical trials can make to the lives of our patients. They also improve cancer care for patients of the future by improving our knowledge of cancers, testing new and novel ways of diagnosing cancers and providing evidence towards best practice and treatments.
