Research Fellow, HSE Mid-West St Camillus' Hospital, Limerick MSc Health Informatics

I work at the intersection of clinical medicine, health data, and how systems can be made to work better for patients.

I'm a physician and Research Fellow at the HSE Research Directorate Mid-West, based at St Camillus' Hospital, Limerick. My work centres on three decades of longitudinal clinical data spanning close to 300,000 DEXA scans, tilt tests, ambulatory blood pressure records, and linked hospital data. Most of what I do is making that data usable: for falls, bone health, orthostatic instability, stroke, skeletal outcomes in cystic fibrosis, and medication burden in older people. Alongside research, I write commentary on Irish health policy and the systems questions that clinical work keeps raising.
