Dana graduated from Ulster University in 2020, with a BSc (Hons) in Stratified Medicine. During my degree, I did my placement year working for a genetics company in Dublin, where I was on rotation throughout the different departments – bioinformatics, R&D, marketing, and patient advocacy and community engagement. I have been with Randox since May 2020, where I started working in the COVID-19 testing labs as a PCR scientist. I quickly progressed into a Deputy Manager role, then moved to help set up and run the COVID sequencing lab. I am currently managing a team of amazing genetic scientists, who are in involved with researching, developing, validating, and implementing various genetic tests for Randox to offer – to help people take control of their health!

From 1990 took up a role a principal scientist for molecular genetics in Belfast City Hospital and from 2000 took up role as consultant clinical scientist and Head of NI Regional Genetics laboratories.

Research interests were in the areas of lipid disorder genetics and genetic factors in Multiple Sclerosis.  Began work with Randox in 2010s to develop a biochip for Familial Hypercholesterolaemia genetic testing and in 2015 retired from Belfast Health Trust and took up part time role with Randox as Senior Clinical Scientist.  We now have a large Genomics testing facility, significantly developed during COVID19 pandemic, and now offering many genomic tests to Randox Health Clinics and third parties.

health scientist, RANDOX

I have worked for Randox Laboratories for over 12 years. In that time, I have worked extensively researching biomarkers of disease and producing scientific materials to aid understanding of new and existing tests.

I manage a team focused on researching new tests to identify their suitability for use as diagnostic biomarkers, with a particular focus on gastrointestinal health. Prior to joining Randox I studied at the University of Glasgow where I obtained a BSc (Hons) in Molecular and Cellular Biology and a PhD in Cardiovascular and Medical Sciences.

FOUNDER, RANDOX

Dr FitzGerald founded Randox in 1982 in a converted ‘Hen House’ at the back of his parent’s house in Crumlin, Co. Antrim.  Since then, the company has grown to over 3,000 staff worldwide including 800 R&D Scientists & Engineers, with customers in over 145 countries. Randox develop, manufacture and market a wide range of clinical and veterinary diagnostic reagents and systems. Randox supplies 100,000 laboratories globally and is the fourth largest manufacturer of clinical chemistry reagents in the world.

Dr FitzGerald was awarded the Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 2011 for services to business in Northern Ireland. He has gained many other accolades in his career to date; named a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering (FREng) and Innovation Founder of the Year 2013 from the Northern Ireland Science Park, to name a few.

research scientist, randox

Born and raised in Iran, my passion for science and helping others was evident in my early anatomical sketches. After graduating with honours from Shahid Beheshti Medical School, the country’s top medical institution, I worked as a general practitioner in rural and remote areas for four years, eventually establishing my private office while serving less urban communities.

My experiences in underserved regions exposed me to the profound impact of poor digestive health on children’s well-being, igniting my interest in gastroenterology and paediatrics. I embarked on paediatric training at Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, but soon realized I yearned for a more science-oriented setting. This led to a bold decision: transitioning from patient care to a career in medical research. I joined Randox Laboratories as a research scientist, focused on developing diagnostic biomarkers and databases for early disease detection.

My journey from a general practitioner to a research scientist has been a transformative one, allowing me to use my expertise to make a difference on a global scale.

An Iranian Clinical Nutritionist with a deep passion for science and health. My academic journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Public Health specializing in Disease Prevention and Control, which ignited my interest in improving human well-being. Following that, I pursued a Master of Science in Clinical Nutrition, where I honed my expertise.

I have had the privilege of working as both a Clinical Nutritionist and a Disease Control Expert within the healthcare system for several years. Through these experiences, I have gained invaluable insights into the field of Nutrition Science and have witnessed first-hand the profound impact of nutrition on a diverse range of chronic and gastrointestinal diseases.

My dedication to research has led to several publications, including scientific papers and posters in the field of Nutrition. Currently, I’m a Research Scientist at Randox Laboratories, where I apply my research expertise to develop innovative ways to diagnose and treat various diseases, contributing to advancements in healthcare.

My journey is a testament to the power of curiosity and commitment to make a positive impact on public health. With a vigilant focus on the horizon, I eagerly anticipate future opportunities to contribute to the ever-evolving fields of Nutrition science and Chronic disease, with the aim of enhancing the well-being of individuals and communities worldwide

RESEARCH SCIENTIST, RANDOX

I work within a team interested in being able to better predict disease through developing risk-predictive algorithms. Prior to this, I completed a MSc in Molecular genetics and diagnostics at the University of Nottingham, and a BSc in Biochemistry at the University of Portsmouth.

Head of Genomics Strategy, RANDOX

James studied Biotechnology at the University of Nottingham where he conducted research into epigenetic regulation of the commonly referred ‘hunger suppressing hormone’, leptin. James began working for Randox as a Research and Development Scientist in 2018 where he worked on developing novel biochemical assays for detecting illness/disease. During the pandemic he managed one of the largest COVID-19 testing and sequencing labs in Europe and remains employed by Randox as Head of Genomics Strategy with interests in further understanding the human microbiome and how this affects your body.
