Things are moving quickly for gene-editing therapies. "A fresh wave of gene-editing therapies is surging to the fore — even as the field wrestles with the challenge of getting the first generation of expensive and complex #CRISPR treatments to the people who need them."

Thank you Silvia! Glad of being in your team! Many adventures coming! 🎉

Thank you Silvia Giordani ! I received an incredible welcome from you and all the people working at DCU Life Sciences Institute . Really appreciated that! 🤗✨

Lots of activity on campus today for Dublin City University Spring Open Day, staff and students from DCU School of Biotechnology DCU School of Chemical Sciences DCU School of Psychology DCU Nursing, Psychotherapy & Community Health DCUMaths DCUPhysics & DCU School of Health and Human Performance are all busy providing tours and demonstrations and answering questions. dcu.ie/spring-open-day

I enjoyed our ⁦Dublin City University⁩ Spring Open Day, giving taste lectures about what our School have to offer, providing laboratory tours and answering questions from interested high school students and parents at the stand together with my colleagues and postgraduate students.

Congrats to the Giordani group for this new publication !! 🎉 Silvia Giordani Hugh Mohan Michał Bartkowski

What do we do in our research group? ⚗️🧪🧬 Our group leader Prof Silvia Giordani tells you about it in this video! 👇🏻 As a member of her team, I enjoyed so much this filming session 🤣 and the result is amazing!

Our carbon dots are shining! 😎✨

Finally a professional picture! Ahahah 🤣 Thank you Michał Bartkowski! #NewProfilePic

Three new papers in Science report that astrocytes are indispensable for neuromodulatory signaling across diverse neural circuits, behavioral contexts, and species. Learn more in a new #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/3F4XJRP

Delighted to be the recipient of a Research Alliance Award, which will allow us to investigate the feasibility of using our Carbon Nano-onions in laser assisted cancer therapy, in collaboration with Prof Zengbo Wang at Bangor University in Wales.

Very happy to represent our Carbon dots also at the 22nd SFRR-I Biennial Meeting in Galway! ✨ Europe-SFRR Research Ireland Dublin City University

The Young Investigator Award I received last week in Galway by the Society for Free Radical Research - Europe (Europe-SFRR) and Elsevier . It was such a surprise! Thanks a lot! ✨

Great work about P2X7 role in traumatic brain injury from a wonderful team I could collaborate with! 🎉 Many congrats!! 🤗

Had a fantastic week at #Carbon2025 in Saint-Malo 🇫🇷! I had the honour of opening Topic 1 with a keynote on carbon nano-onions for drug delivery 🏆 @HughMohan won Best PhD Oral Presentation 🧪 Aravind presented a great poster on CNO dispersibility Proud of them! 💪

hugh mohan Beyond the science, #Carbon2025 was a great chance to connect, recharge, and strengthen bonds—with our team and collaborators from around the world. 🌍🤝 These moments make all the difference. Hugh Mohan #GiordaniGroup #ScienceCollaboration #CarbonResearch #PhDLife

Congratulations Hugh Mohan ! 🎉
