Biography

Róisín Dwyer is a Lecturer in Translational Science in the Discipline of Surgery at NUI Galway. Following graduation from UCD with a degree in Science, Róisín went on to complete a MSc in Biological Sciences at DCU, and then was awarded her PhD in Medicine and Therapeutics from UCD. Róisín's research background in breast cancer led to a 3 year postdoctoral research position at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota. Upon her return to Ireland, she was awarded a National University of Ireland (NUI) Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Sciences, and subsequently secured funding from the Health Research Board and the Irish Cancer Society. She was named Irish Cancer Society "Researcher of the Year" in 2012. Róisín's current research, in collaboration with both national and international research groups, focuses on novel approaches to breast cancer therapy. Her work investigates the potential to engineer adult stem cells and secreted extracellular vesicles as vehicles for targeted delivery of therapeutic agents to breast tumours, with a specific interest in imaging modalities to track migration In Vivo. Other areas of interest include cellular interactions in the breast tumour microenvironment mediated by extracellular vesicles and microRNAs, and the potential to harness secreted factors as biomarkers of disease.
