In addition to my interests in regenerative medicine, stem cells and neuroscience, I have a keen interest in bioethics and medical law and the role that these disciplines have with current research trends.
Other personal interests include history, archaeology and classical literature. I enjoy playing classical and folk music on the violin and I am a cornet player in the Galway St Patrick’s Brass Band.
