About

Dr. Nollaig Bourke is an Assistant Professor in Inflammaging at Trinity College Dublin. His research focuses on the biology of ageing, inflammation in older adults, and the immunological aspects of age-related diseases. Recent publications include studies on interferon auto-antibodies in liver cirrhosis, pro-inflammatory cytokine signatures in severe COVID-19, and the implications of vitamin D status on inflammation. Dr. Bourke's work contributes significantly to understanding the complexities of geriatric medicine and neurodegeneration.
