Research Lives: Niamh Hynes, vascular surgeon and post-doctoral researcher, University of Galway
Niamh Hynes: 'Ireland is known internationally as being one of the world leaders in research and development of medical devices and pharma.'I use the analogy that we are like plumbers. We look after the pipes, the blood vessels everywhere in your body except your heart and your brain. If these pipes develop a blockage through plaque build-up or a clot, or if they burst because of a weakness in the vessel wall, that can cause big problems.
We examine biopsies of aortic tissues harvested during surgery to learn more about how the tissue behaves under various conditions see what kinds of genes are being expressed and how this correlates with the biomechanical function of the tissue.
