research group is leading to novel therapies in respiratory disease,
particularly in Asthma, COPD and Sarcoidosis.
A medical graduate of University College
Galway (UCG), he successfully competed previously for prestigious Wellcome
Trust Fellowships at the University of Edinburgh and the Picower Institute in
New York, an Institute affiliated to Rockefeller University. Returning to
Ireland, he was one of the first clinicians to be awarded a Science Foundation
Ireland (SFI) Principal Investigator Programme grant award which was recently
renewed for a further 5 years. This work has focused on the development
of novel small molecular-weight anti-inflammatory agents targeting chronic
inflammatory diseases particularly pertaining to the lung. He is a co-applicant on the recently awarded Wellcome Trust/HRB Dublin Clinical Research Facility.

Edinburgh University recognizes Professor Donnelly¿s as an international leader
in medical research and how his research epitomizes classical bench to bedside
on an international stage.
