I went to secondary school in Loreto, Mullingar, and one of the teachers was my aunt, Sister Concepta. I immediately got the logic of programming, and I still find it amazing that I was getting to write computer code in school in 1974! Today your research is in software engineering – how does that differ from writing software? I also work with clinics and hospitals, to identify issues and map out how technology can help. On a day off recently, I went for a fantastic riverside walk that went through the UL campus.
