My research interests are in the role of innate and adaptive immunity in inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohns Disease) and in the importance of the host immune response in gastro-intestinal neoplasia, particularly Colorectal Cancer. With my colleagues at the Centre for Colorectal Disease at SVUH/UCD (www.colorectal.ie) we have an established track record in clinical research on a range of digestive disorders and are actively involved in clinical trials in IBD and Cancer.
The Centre for Colorectal Disease was established at St Vincent's University Hospital in 1993 with the aim of delivering quality care to all patients with colorectal disorders (notably colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease and pelvic floor disorders) while at the same time developing high quality research, teaching and education.
At the core of the Centre is the collaboration between a multidisciplinary clinical team (consisting of colorectal surgeons, medical gastroenterologists, oncologists, pathologists, radiologists and specialist nurses) with our dedicated team of scientific staff.
