Fulbright Ireland NUI and HRB Health Impact Scholar 2024 | Postdoctoral Researcher @hseas, Harvard University & @TERG, RCSI |
Excited to be chosen as a @Fulbright_Eire -National University of Ireland and Fulbright-HRB HealthImpact Scholar! 🇮🇪🇺🇸 @NUIMerrionSq @hrbireland Looking forward to working with Prof David Mooney's group @hseas on biomaterials for spinal cord repair @TissueEngDublin @fjobrien
We are delighted to announce 21 #Fulbright Irish Awardees for 2024-2025. Congratulations!👏 #FulbrightFamily #FulbrightAwards #Ireland #USA 🇮🇪🇺🇸 Read the news: bit.ly/3VqEu9z Photo: Robbie Reynolds
AMBER Deputy Director Prof @fjobrien of @RCSI_Irl spoke on Today with Claire Byrne with Ciarán a participant in the PPI (Patient and Public Involvement) work part of spinal cord regeneration research in association with @IRFUCharTrust funded by AMBER ambercentre.ie/amber-research…
Proud to share our latest article on the JoA, great team 🙏 @FabQu_ 💪& @AdrianDervan. Results pave the way for the dev. of new models to study human CNS in ageing and disease. Thanks to Prof. Lee, Prof @fjobrien, @claudio_intini, Marko Dobricic. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jo…
I will be presenting at the Materials Research Society #F24MRS Conference in Boston this Monday at 11:00. Swing by to hear about my work on 3D-printed electroconductive scaffolds and electrostimulation for spinal cord injury repair, or DM me to meet and talk about it further!
I'm going to be giving a talk this Wed (4:30 pm) at #F24MRS on my work at @TissueEngDublin on 3D-printed MXene-based scaffolds for spinal cord injury repair and how melt-electrowritten microarchitectures can drive delivery of electrical stimulation. Check it out/DM me to meet!
Also from @TissueEngDublin, @RCSI_Irl we see how matrix proteins including laminin-1, fibronectin, and collagen-IV enhance neural cell growth & drive changes at both the whole-cell and nanoscale levels. These insights can help inform the design of biomaterial scaffolds! 🧠🔬
📌The 2026-27 U.S. #Fulbright Scholar competition is now open!🇺🇸 Learn about the opportunities available to U.S. professionals, artists & scholars to research/teach in Ireland. Join the @IIEglobal webinar on May 21 at 2PM EST (UTC/GMT -5:00). ➡️bit.ly/41kvoz6
Well done @J_C_Palomeque! Check out the paper below!
Well done to @J_C_Palomeque for leading this study just published on a VEGF-activated scaffold with enhanced angiogenic and neurogenic properties for chronic wound healing applications. Funded by @Researchirel @ambercentre pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Excited to share our new review paper on organoid bioprinting in @natrevbioeng! 🎉 We highlight recent advances and envision a future that integrates organoid biology and biofabrication approaches to engineer complex tissues. Hope you enjoy! 😊 🔓: rdcu.be/d3H6u
Organoid bioprinting is used to create complex 3D models of human tissues. In this Review, Heilshorn et al. discuss additive manufacturing approaches to advance disease modeling, drug testing, and the production of bioprinted-tissues for clinical use. go.nature.com/3VGB6YN
Delighted that I'll be presenting at Materials Research Society in Boston, this Thursday at 9AM! If you're here in Boston, come and hear about my work in graphene-based microelectrode arrays for neural interfacing, or drop me a DM to meet or chat online! #F24MRS
