Dr Darragh O Donovan | Researcher, School of Biomolecular and Biomedical Science
University College Dublin

Darragh O’ Donovan PhD is a researcher in the School of Biomolecular and Biomedical Science at University College Dublin, within the laboratory of Dr. David O’ Connell. Our research focuses on addressing fundamental protein engineering questions related to optimizing high-affinity interactions, and their role in the purification and high-throughput biophysical characterization of biologics. The lab collaborates with multinational biopharmaceutical companies in Ireland, Switzerland and Sweden and with a number of high throughput biochemistry labs across Europe and the US. Darragh is also Principal Scientist in startup BlackLabBio, which is a spin-out company from UCD specializing in patented protein engineering technology solutions.
