Dr Nina C. Dempsey PhD, SFHEA
Senior Lecturer
Research interests in haematological markers in critically ill patients.
My profile
Biography
I have been a Senior Lecturer here at Manchester Metropolitan University in Haematology & Transfusion Medicine since 2013.
I teach across the undergraduate, postgraduate and Clinical Doctorate programmes, covering a range of topics including, Anaemias, Haematological Malignancies, Blood Group Compatibility Testing, Transfusion-Transmitted Infections and Transfusion Reactions.
Pathway Lead for MSc Clinical Science - Haematology and Transfusion
Pathway Lead for DClinSCi -Haematology and Transfusion
Interests and expertise
Research Interests in the utility of haematological markers in the prognostication and management of critically ill patients. Sepsis and major burns are two specific cohorts of critical illness that particularly interest me.
Projects
Currently funded by NHSBT - PhD studentship entitled, Anovel, point-of-care (PoC), multi-analyte device for the detection of inflammation in deceased organ donors and its impact on transplant recipient outcomes.
Working with Mersey & West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust on a project entitled, Improving outcomes in critically ill burns patients.
Teaching
Undergraduate and postgraduate teaching in Haematology and Transfusion Medicine :
Haematopoiesis, Anaemias, Haematological Malignancies, Blood Grouping, Transfusion Reactions, Transfusion-Transmitted Infections.
SUPERVISION
Postgraduate Research
Supervision of MRes, PhD and DClinSci Students.
Self-funded MRes and PhD students are encouraged to get in touch to discuss potential project opportunities.
Research outputs
My research focuses on the utility of haematological markers in the prognostication and management of critically ill patients. Sepsis and major burns are two specific cohorts of critical illness that particularly interest me.
My work has involved identifying novel haematological markers with significant predictive value in these cohorts, as well as developing technology for the rapid analysis of such markers at point-of-care. This has also extended into the area of organ donation research, with the aim of being able to rapidly assess the immunological status of deceased organ donors and hence assess organ quality to ultimately predict transplant success in the organ recipient.
