Biography

Niamh Moore is a lecturer in the discipline of Medical Imaging and Radiation Therapy and is a registered radiographer with a clinical background specialising in CT. Niamh graduated with a BSc (Hons) Radiography in 1997 and spent over 20 years working as a Clinical Radiographer in Cork University Hospital where she held the position of CT Clinical Specialist. She completed a post-graduate certificate in CT in 2002 followed by an MSc in CT in 2009. Niamh has always had a keen interest in education and research and has been involved in developing research, teaching and education opportunities for many years. She was an integral member of a steering group which led to the development of the MSc Diagnostic Radiography programme at UCC, where she commenced in the role of Programme Development Co-Ordinator. Niamh has been a member of CORUs Radiographers Registration Board (RRB) since March 2020 and has recently been appointed Chair of the RRB. She also represents the South as a council member of the Irish Institute of Radiography and Radiation Therapy. Niamh is keen to contribute to developing, promoting and delivering CPD and is currently the CPD representative for the discipline. In 2020 Niamh completed a Post Graduate Certificate in Teaching and Learning and is currently undertaking a PhD which she commenced in 2020. The focus of her PhD is Low dose imaging in CT of the Chest. Niamh has been actively involved in research for almost 15 years and has a number of publications, particularly in the area of low dose imaging.
