Really looking forward to this meeting and talking about all things #neuro-oncology
📣 **SAVE THE DATE** The GLIORESOLVE consortium is hosting a satellite conference at #EANO2025 in Prague on 15 October. We have an outstanding lineup of invited speakers and exciting research updates from the network. Free registration will open soon via the EANO website.
Another very successful Work in Progress (WIP) seminar. We had two fascinating talks from some talented students 🧠🔬

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

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! 🧠🧠🧠
That’s #BrainAwarenessWeek 2025 done and dusted. Great experience interacting with @SHGS_Newry Year 8 students with @KateCScience and the team from @TCDPhysiology building brains and neurons and exploring the complexity of the human brain @Futureneuro_ie @TrinityMed1 @tcddublin

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: ow.ly/VmNt50VaS81
So excited to be joining this wonderful Department! 🧠
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
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

🤩 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 – at Dublin City, Ireland
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
Very excited to speak with some other brilliant researchers this evening! @pintofscienceIE @TCDPhysiology #braintumour #EpilepsyAwareness
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
Very excited for Pint of Science on 14th May in Dundalk! Come along and hear about my work in the Cunningham Lab @TCDPhysiology #braintumourrelatedepilepsy
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 pintofscience.ie/event/beaut…… @Futureneuro_ie

🤔 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/
