Biography

Professor Aoife Lowery is a Consultant Surgeon at Galway University Hospital and Associate Professor in the Discipline of Surgery, NUI Galway.

Academic Profile/Qualifications
  • PhD NUI Galway (Molecular Medicine Ireland Clinician Scientist Fellowship Programme).
  • FRCS (Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland Higher Surgical Training Programme).
  • Masters in Medical Science (National University of Ireland Galway)
  • PDip Clinical Education (National University of Ireland Galway)
  • International Fellowship in Endocrine Surgery at France’s pre-eminent Endocrine Surgery unit in Marseille, funded by the Richard Steeven’s Scholarship. 
  • MB BCh BAO, MRCS (National University of Ireland Galway)
Research
Professor Lowery’s research focuses predominantly on breast cancer and endocrine cancer, with a translational science approach enhanced by her closely aligned clinical subspecialty interest in breast and endocrine surgery. Her ongoing work on these themes investigates factors that drive tumour intitation and locoregional disease recurrence and the implications that molecular heterogeneity of malignancy may have on surgical strategy.  Her research interests also include the investigation of innovative methods for post malignancy breast reconstruction using adipose derived stem cells.

Teaching:
She is currently Year 5 Head for the Undergraduate Medical Education Programme, and sits on the ICAT Steering Committee.
