💙💛 Coveted Fulbright Awards recognise UCD scholars

🇺🇸 Some of UCD's brightest have been awarded and recognised by the Fulbright Association Program, enabling them to be hosted at some of America’s top universities for the next year.

👏 Congratulations to Associate Professor Kate Frazer, Caleb O’Connor, John O’Grady, Órla Casserly and Alimat Babatunde.

This year two awardees from UCD received scholarships, Associate Professor Kate Frazer, UCD School of Nursing, Midwifery and Health Systems, and Caleb O’Connor, an environmental humanities and queer studies scholar graduating with a doctorate from the UCD School of English, Drama and Film.

The pair were among eight scholarship recipients at this year’s FULBRIGHT IRELAND Awards, and they were presented with their awards at a ceremony at the Department of Foreign Affairs, Ireland in Iveagh House.

As a Fulbright-HRB HealthImpact Scholar, Associate Professor Kate Frazer will join transdisciplinary colleagues at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), world-leading Centre for Tobacco Control Research and Education, to conduct research examining second-hand smoke exposure in marginalised communities, specifically with families experiencing homelessness.

As a Fulbright-National University of Ireland Scholar, Caleb will work with the Gallatin WetLab team at New York University to facilitate a series of workshops on queer ecopoetics and conduct a series of walking interviews with queer New Yorkers, which will inform his first monograph on queer urban ecologies.

Caleb is one of Dublin’s Pride Poets who performed on the main stage of Dublin Pride in 2022 and 2023.
Receiving a Fulbright Irish Student Award was John O'Grady, who is in the third year of his PhD in Bioinformatics and Systems Biology at UCD.

As a Fulbright-Teagasc Awardee at the Department of Biomedical Informatics at the University of Colorado Denver, John will leverage machine learning approaches and high-resolution bovine transcriptomics data to identify diagnostic biomarkers indicative of bovine tuberculosis disease under the guidance of Professor Casey Greene, who has extensive experience in the characterisation of transcriptional biomarkers for cancer.

The word ‘solidarity’ gets thrown around a lot, but only action gives it weight. If you’re able to come along tomorrow, then please do. Especially if you’re somebody who celebrates Pride with us every June - it’s equally as important to be there when we really need you 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈💕
