Dr Eoghan Dunne is a Senior Post-Doctoral Researcher in the Translational Medical Device Lab and School of Engineering at the University of Galway as well as an honorary adjunct lecturer at the School of Medicine.
He received a BEng in Electronic and Computer Engineering (2016) and PhD in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (2021) from University of Galway. His PhD was focused on using machine learning and electrical impedance tomography for monitoring bladder fullness, during which he collaborated closely with the start-up Kite Medical.
Since completing his PhD, he has been working on Government of Ireland Disruptive Technologies Innovation Fund (DTIF) funded projects to help design new innovate medical device solutions including pulsed field ablation devices to treat Atrial Fibrillation (AuriGen Medical); ablation monitoring systems for lung cancer (Endowave Medical); and device enhancements for CTO crossings (Versono Medical). In addition to fundamental science, his research focuses on translating research to deployable medical devices, and he works closely with current and former BioInnovate fellows to translate their needs to concepts and prototypes.
