I am an internationally recognised leader in the field of vaccine adjuvants with a record of publishing high impact papers, attracting competitive research funding, generating and protecting intellectual property, engaging industrial partners and the public, organising conferences and adopting advisory roles. Adjuvants are essential components of vaccines that can profoundly enhance protective immune responses and specifically can affect the magnitude and type of vaccine -induced innate and adaptive immunity. My research is principally focused on how vaccine adjuvants enhance protective immune responses against infection and cancer. My group has made key discoveries that enhance our understanding of how the physicochemical properties of adjuvants influence the induction of innate and adaptive immunity. We have provided major new insights into how adjuvants engage innate cellular sensing pathways, particularly DNA sensing pathways and inflammasomes, pursuing the specific roles of interferons and cytokines of the IL-1 family in adjuvanticity. We have developed novel particulate vaccine adjuvants (IP filed, new start up in cancer vaccines launched - AilseVax). We have worked on developing an effective oral delivery system that has significant potential for vaccines against ETEC, cholera and Helicobacter pylori. The expertise we have developed in assessing particulate adjuvant regulation of immune responses also has relevance in the field of biomaterial interaction with the immune system. As a result, I have a substantial research programme in this area as part of the AMBER centre. Being a CRANN PI and an AMBER funded investigator has led to close connections with colleagues in Bioengineering, Chemistry and Physics and this cross-disciplinary dimension places my research in a unique position within Ireland. This allows me to pursue how particulate materials can regulate immune responses and how fundamental understanding of the underlying processes can help us to rationally design novel vaccine adjuvant systems but also enhanced biomaterials. My work at Trinity has been transformational over the past 17 years in establishing that nonmicrobial particulate adjuvants can be designed to activate specific innate sensing and signalling pathways and that this can be harnessed to induce and direct adaptive immune responses. This has led to publications in the leading journals in the field, many since my last promotion in 2015. The impact of my work can be seen in invitations to speak at the leading meetings in the field (111 invited conference talks and seminars since 2004), to serve on scientific advisory boards for conferences (15), to serve as chair on the advisory board of a vaccine centre in the U.K., to act as a consultant for leading (Merck, GSK, HIPRA) vaccine companies, to write reviews, commentaries and editorials and to serve as a panel member for prestigious grant agencies (e.g. Gates Foundation, German Centres of Excellence Programme). Being recognised as an authority in vaccine adjuvant research together with the global prominence of this field makes it likely that my influence will grow, generating many new research opportunities over the coming years.
