North West Today

Available for 24 days

The Chair of the Magee taskforce has warned the plan to expand student numbers in Derry to ten thousand 'goes nowhere' if it is not funded by Stormont. And could a United Ireland mean the creation of a new public service broadcaster? We get the thoughts of Ulster University Professor of Creative Technologies Paul Moore. Also on the show, we hear more about an innovative personalised treatment for an aggressive form of leukaemia and speak to a Derry teacher who was crowned 'Educator of Excellence 2026' at the Stripe Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition.
