Great to be celebrating the #2025DayofImmunology in @TCDPhysiology and using electrophysiology to understand what drives #braintumourrelatedepilepsy 🧠🔬

[yEFIS @y_efis]

Young voices, big impact! 🎙️ Early-career immunologists from the 🇮🇪 Irish Society of Immunology share how they’re marking #2025DayofImmunology and advancing the field!

🔎 What excites you about immunology?

#ThankYouImmunology #NeuroImmunology

[Mark Cunningham @markcnewry]

Bravo @KateCScience for getting the @TCDPhysiology work in progress talks seriesunderway with our colleagues in @AnatomyTrinity. A monthly forum where researchers and postgraduate students can present their ideas/work @TrinityMed1

[TCDPhysiology @TCDPhysiology]

Community outreach and education is an important part of what we do - Head of Dept @markcnewry and Asst Prof. @KateCScience hosted this fantastic secondary school neuroscience and neurophysiology event for Brain Awareness Week! 🧠🧠🧠

[Campden Instruments 🧠 @Campden_Instr]

For #worldcancerday and #womeninscience last month, we interviewed @katecscience from @tcddublin

In the interview, Dr. Connor describes her cancer model development research with the use of ex vivo brain slices for model validation. See the video here: https://t.co/1SaRonL7sY

[Dr Kate Connor @KateCScience]

So excited to be joining this wonderful Department! 🧠

[TCDPhysiology @TCDPhysiology]

We are thrilled to introduce Asst. Professor Dr Kate Connor. @KateCScience researches unexplored therapeutic vulnerabilities in hard-to-treat malignancies such as glioblastoma & tumour-associated epilepsies. Her work aims to advance treatments & improve patient quality of life

[Dr Kate Connor @KateCScience]

We are hiring! 🗣️
If you are interested in joining our team as a research assistant to work on novel treatment strategies for Brain tumour related epilespy - get in touch! 🧠 @markcnewry @tcddublin @TCDPhysiology

[FutureNeuro Centre @Futureneuro_ie]

As part of #BrainAwarenessWeek2025, our researcher @markcnewry and his team at @tcddublin will be at Sacred Heart Grammar School in Newry on March 12, inspiring students to explore the brain through a hands-on workshop!🧠🔬

[Mark Cunningham @markcnewry]

Thanks to @BreakthroCancer for supporting Nazia Rafiq (4th @TrinityMed1 student) to undertake her summer studentship working on brain tumour related epilepsy supervised by @KateCScience in @TCDPhysiology @tcdTBSI @TCDTMI

[FutureNeuro Centre @Futureneuro_ie]

🤩 We're having a great time at @START_ERN #EuropeanResearchersNight at @RCSI_Irl! Lots of exciting chats about the research at FutureNeuro, plus fun hands-on activities—from DNA extractions to mini-EEG demos exploring visitors' brain waves. Thank you to everyone who stopped by!

[Bridget Doyle @BridgetMMDoyle]

Brought ⁦@RichardHjelseth⁩ to #europeanresearchersnight ⁦@RCSI_Irl⁩ and rcsi_sim. Thanks to all super ⁦⁦@Futureneuro_ie⁩ presenters esp ⁦@KateCScience⁩ who found strong brain activity. Phew 😉

[Mark Cunningham @markcnewry]

@KateCScience and I had a blast interacting with 5th class students of Central Model School. We explored the brain, neurons and EEG. Great questions from pupils and future neuroscientists in the making @TCDPhysiology @TrinityMed1 @tcddublin @Futureneuro_ie

[Dr Kate Connor @KateCScience]

Brilliant opportunity to speak about my refined protocols for in vivo wireless telemetry using scruffguards at the @InstAnimalTech meeting in Dublin this week @DatesandGroup @TCDPhysiology #3Rs #braintumour #epilepsy

[Dr Kate Connor @KateCScience]

Very excited to speak with some other brilliant researchers this evening! @pintofscienceIE @TCDPhysiology #braintumour #EpilepsyAwareness

[Mark Cunningham @markcnewry]

Tonight’s the night! Get yourselves along to Kennedy’s in Dundalk for @KateCScience @pintofscienceIE talk on brain tumour related #epilepsy @tcddublin @DkIT_ie @TCDPhysiology @TrinityMed1 @Futuneuro_ie

[Dr Kate Connor @KateCScience]

Very excited for Pint of Science on 14th May in Dundalk! Come along and hear about my work in the Cunningham Lab @TCDPhysiology #braintumourrelatedepilepsy

[Mark Cunningham @markcnewry]

Come along to @pintofscienceIE 14th May - the brilliant @KateCScience Dr Kate Connor @TCDPhysiology @TrinityMed1 will be talking about our @scienceirel funded work on brain tumour related epilepsy https://t.co/zbtyvUvaFt… @Futureneuro_ie

[Epilepsy Sparks @EpilepsySparks]

🤔 Why do people talk about brain tumours 🦠🧠 so often but rarely say that they have developed an #epilepsy?! 30% of people with or who have had a #braintumour also develop an #epilepsy!! 😱🤯 1/
