Working On A Cure, Professor Ursula Fearon

2015 saw our quest to find a cure continue at pace. Our Second Chair of Rheumatology was appointed to TCD. Professor Ursula Fearon joins the team at the Trinity Biomedical Sciences Institute.

Prof. Fearon is concentrating her research on developing state-of-the-art basic research techniques and applying them to high quality bio-banked samples to examine the mechanisms of disease in arthritis with the aim of advancing our understanding of the cause of arthritis, predicting the response to therapy and ultimately predicting who can achieve remission while potentially identifying exciting new targets for novel therapies.
