I'm a PhD researcher in Immunology and my full time research nets me €18,500pa PhDs like me do essential work, critical to medical, scientific, technological & social progress Meanwhile, bankers who destroyed the economy complain that €500k pa isnt enough for them

Delighted to attend #EACR2022 in Seville and present some of my research on the role of microRNA in OAC treatment resistance 🔬 @Niamh_LL @JacinthaOS @Surgery_TCD @CancerInstIRE

Brilliant and thought-provoking lecture to close #EACR2022 by Maria Soengas, winner of the 2022 Pezcoller-Marina Larcher Fogazzaro-EACR Women in Cancer Research Award. #WomenInScience

So happy to get to share my research at my first in person conference of my PhD @News_IACR

Funding for PhDs in Ireland generally ranges between €12k-21k pa, however, there are many people on less or even no stipend. Ireland desperately needs to change for better treatment of PhD workers #phdlife #PhDVoice

An opportunity to work with a great team of people with an incredibly kind and supportive mentor!!

My worst nightmare became reality 🥲

Another first-author paper published thanks to the talented @JamesJPhelan_ and everyone involved. Looking at current TB drugs and their effect on host immunometabolism.
