AMBER researchers develop implant that conveys electrical signals, may have potential to encourage nerve cell (neuron) repair after spinal cord injury Details published in Materials Today by AMBER researchers in RCSI & Trinity College Dublin with IRFUCharitableTrust ambercentre.ie/implant-neuron…

Delighted to share that our work on a combined 3D-printed, electroconductive scaffold/electrical stimulation approach to drive neuronal regrowth after spinal cord injury has been published in Materials Today! Read the paper: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… RCSI TERG AMBER

#MustRead: A team of Irish researchers from RCSI and AMBER has developed a 3D-printed implant that emits electric signals to boost the regrowth of injured nerve cells following a spinal cord injury. ow.ly/aIVL50T8uwG

Ever turned a corner on a Glendalough trail and been surprised to find industrial logging in the heartland of "protected" Irish woodlands? Eoghan Dalton writes powerfully about the bizarre failures of our state to salvage Irish forests and the huge opportunities we're missing.

Interested in combining neural engineering with cancer research? Olga Piskareva and I are recruiting PhD students to work on 3D-printed in vitro models of cancer metastasis in brain tissues. Apply below: rcsi.com/dublin/researc…

Really proud to see Dr Eimear Smith presenting RCSI TERG's 3D-printed conductive scaffolds and our Public Patient Involvement work at the Spinal Injuries IRL conference. Lot of work done but lots more to do! #spinalcordinjury

I'm going to be giving a talk this Wed (4:30 pm) at #F24MRS on my work at RCSI TERG on 3D-printed MXene-based scaffolds for spinal cord injury repair and how melt-electrowritten microarchitectures can drive delivery of electrical stimulation. Check it out/DM me to meet!

Check out Liam Leahy's talk tomorrow at 11 am at #F24MRS!

Members of TERG were delighted to attend the launch of Ciarán McCarthy's newest book 'Closer to Walking Again' last night! Ciarán has been an active member of the PPI panel for the RCSI spinal cord injury research team since it was established! Read more: rcsi.com/dublin/news-an…

Really enjoyed presenting my work on developing 3D printed MXene biomaterials at @bio. Combining 3D printing with conductive nanomaterials provides us with exciting tools for tuning electrical stimulation based therapies.

Huge congratulations to Ian Woods on being the recipient of this year's RAMI Bronze Medal at BioEngineering in Ireland 2025! 🥳🥳🥳

Delighted to recieve the Royal Academy of Medicine in Ireland Bronze Medal Award at this year's BioEngineering in Ireland conference. Looking forward to pushing our electroactive implant technologies towards preclinical testing over the next year with Prof. Fergal O'Brien and our team at RCSI TERG

I'm going to be presenting my latest work on 3D-printing #MXene-based electroactive scaffold implants today at 7pm (GMT, or 2 pm EST) as part of the International Online SCI Research Seminars Seminar series on spinal cord injury research. Live Link: youtube.com/watch?v=78Mzig…

After a fantastic day of talks, novel therapeutics and a fascinating keynote by Prof David Mooney, I was delighted to be awarded Best Early Career Research Talk at the RCSI Research Day 2025 for my work on MXene-based Biomaterial Scaffolds For Neurotrauma Repair.

We are seeking candidates for a fully funded PhD position to develop 3D-printed electroconductive implants for traumatic brain injury repair. It's an exciting project at the intersection of biomedical engineering, neuroscience and material science: rcsi.com/dublin/researc…
