Senior lecturer in Exposure Science, University of Galway
I graduated from NUI Galway in 2000 with a PhD in Atmospheric Physics. From 2000 – 2003 I have worked in industry as an Industrial Hygiene Professional. Since 2003, I have worked as a Lecturer in Exposure Science, Occupational Hygiene and Chemical Safety and Risk Management. In 2015, I was awarded Chartered membership (CMFOH) of the Faculty of the Occupational Hygiene (British Occupational Hygiene Society). I was the programme Director for the multidisciplinary MSc / HDip Occupational and Environmental Health & Safety programmes from 2009 – 2019. I am currently programme Director for the BSc Environmental Health and Safety programme. I also lead the Exposure Science research group and have published over 70 peer-reviewed journals, reports and conference contributions in the field of Exposure Science (Occupational & Environmental Exposure). In January 2021, I was invited to serve on a National Expert Group on the Role of Ventilation in Reducing Transmission of COVID-19. Initially established as a subgroup of the National Public Health Emergency Team (NPHET), this group now works with the Senior Official’s Group to further inform sectoral guidance and public information regarding ventilation
