Another very successful Work in Progress (WIP) seminar. We had two fascinating talks from some talented students 🧠🔬 @TCDPhysiology @TrinityMed1 #earlycareerresearchers #workinprogress #epilepsyresearch #CancerResearch
Great to be celebrating the #2025DayofImmunology in @TCDPhysiology and using electrophysiology to understand what drives #braintumourrelatedepilepsy 🧠🔬

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

🤔 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/ 🎧📹 Podcast, video, transcription torierobinson.com/epilepsy-spark… #braintumor @markcnewry
