BIOGRAPHY

Dr Stephen Madden (BA (Mod), MRes, PhD) is a StAR Research Lecturer.

Having gained his PhD in 2007, Stephen remained at UCD and worked in a postdoctoral research capacity on a number of projects with the Bioinformatics Research Group predominantly in the cancer field at the Conway Institute.

In 2009 he moved to Dublin City University where he led the bioinformatic and biostatistical core facility for Molecular Therapeutics for Cancer Ireland an SFI-funded Strategic Research Cluster which aimed to discover and develop new anti-cancer drugs. Most recently he worked as part of the BREAST-PREDICT project with the consortium at the Conway Institute at UCD, where he provided bioinformatic/biostatistics support to the consortium as a whole, and supervised and trained PhD students in the fields of biostatistics and bioinformatics.

Stephen was recruited to the RCSI in January 2016 into the new position of StAR Research Lecturer in the Data Science Centre. Stephen’s predominant research interests are in cancer genomics and transcriptomics, next generation sequence analysis, multivariate statistics and data integration.
