Trinity College Dublin has appointed Dr Bahman Nassereloslami as the Tony Coote Assistant Professor in MND.

Fr Coote passed away yesterday evening surrounded by his mother Patricia and brothers David, Kieran and Pat.

Fr Tony Coote died yesterday after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease in February 2018.

When Christine Buckley’s older son, Darragh, came home from school one day, fresh from a teasing about his afro hair and frustrated that he didn’t look like everyone else, she told him never to be afraid of standing out from the crowd.
