معرفی
Ciara Leahy is a Research Fellow at the School of Medicine, University of Limerick, specializing in hematopathology and lymphoma biology with emphasis on tumor microenvironment interactions in B-cell malignancies including Burkitt lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma.
Her research portfolio spans critical domains in oncology and immunology:
- Tumor microenvironment dynamics in lymphoma progression
- Immune checkpoint mechanisms (TIGIT/PD-1) in Hodgkin lymphoma
- Epstein-Barr virus pathogenesis in B-cell malignancies
- Biological marker identification for lymphoma subtyping
- Immunoglobulin-related biomarkers in hematological cancers
Analysis of her 2020-2024 publications reveals an evolving research trajectory centered on tumor-immune interactions, with increasing emphasis on clinical correlations between immune signatures and disease behavior. Her work bridges basic virology (EBV pathogenesis), translational immunology (immune biomarkers), and novel therapeutic approaches (nanoparticle drug delivery), demonstrating significant interdisciplinary collaboration across international institutions.
No scientific awards were documented in the provided information.
Details regarding student supervision, grant funding, and laboratory infrastructure were not specified in the source material, though her co-authorship patterns indicate active participation in multi-institutional research consortia focused on lymphoma pathogenesis.
