Biography

Dr. Eugene J. Farrell (@DoctorDune) is a fulltime, permanent Lecturer in the Discipline of Geography in the College of Arts, Social Sciences, & Celtic Studies in University of Galway. He joined the University in August 2012. He is the instructor for physical geography modules in the BA, BSc (undergraduate) and MSc (postgraduate) degree programmes.

Dr. Farrell completed the Earth Science Bachelor of Science (BSc hons.) programme at University College Cork (1991-1995) and the Masters of Science (MS) programme in Geography during his tenure at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, USA (1995-1998). Following these he worked in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in the California real estate industry for four years (1998-2002) mapping natural and environmental hazards. He moved to Italy in 2003 to work at the Università degli Studi di Firenze on coastal research and management projects along the Tuscany coastline. He completed the doctoral programme (PhD) in Geography at Texas A&M University, USA (2006-2012). During this time period he was a National Science Foundation (NSF) fellow and visiting scholar at James Cook University, Queensland, Australia. In January 2012 he was appointed Postdoctoral Associate at the Institute of Marine and Coastal Science, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey (USA).

In 2021 Dr. Farrell was elected as Ireland's nominee for the European Marine Board (EMB) Working Group on ‘Coastal Resilience’. The EMB is the leading European think tank in marine science policy focused on advancing marine research and bridging the gap between science and policy. The Working Group published position paper #27 in 2023 to provide an overview of the current state of the art in methods and tools for coastal resilience and identify knowledge gaps for future challenges. The research will inform EU policy and promote science-based decision making in coastal conservation, restoration, habitat and biodiversity management.

Dr Farrell is a contributing author of Volume 3 'Being prepared for Irelands future climate' (272pp) in Irelands Climate Change Assessment (ICCA) 2024 report. This is the first comprehensive and authoritative assessment of the state of knowledge around all key aspects of climate change in Ireland and written to complement and localise the global assessments undertaken by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports.

In 2024 he was invited by the European Commission to the 1st EU-LAC (Latin America and the Caribbean) conference on Nature-based Solutions (NbS) as an expert panel speaker for coastal and marine ecosystems with the aim to initiate a Policy Dialogue between the two regions.

In 2018 Dr Farrell was the recipient of the Presidents Award for Societal Impact from the University of Galway. In 2024 he was the recipient of the Presidents Award for Research Excellence.
