EIGHTY NEW scholars of Trinity College Dublin (TCD) as well as 17 new fellows and three honorary fellows were announced this week at a ceremony by TCD Provost Dr John Hegarty.
The scholars are elected every year based on a student’s exam results from the Hilary term and is for those who have shown exceptional understanding of their subjects.
Fellowships are awarded to academics whose research is of “a high order”, who contribute to the academic life of the college and have an effective record of teaching.
These appointees would have submitted their work for external review as part of the process.
Recently appointed professors are automatically awarded a fellowship because their research profile is already considered to be of a very high standard.
Among these recipients was Prof Poul Holm. Prof Holm is academic director of TCD’s arts and humanities research institute the Long Room Hub, which was set up in 2007 to foster interdisciplinary research.
Prof Holm is the author of nine books and more than 100 papers on topics which include fisheries history, marine environmental history and the Viking settlements in Ireland.
Director of the Economic and Social Research Institute Prof Frances Ruane received one of the three honorary fellowships. Prof Ruane has published in the fields of international, economic and industrial development.
Other honorary fellowships were awarded to Prof of Cardiovascular Medicine at TCD Ian Graham and Tennessee-based immunologist Dr Douglas R Green who has published more than 400 scientific papers.
