NGF - EP 17 Follow Your Gut with Cliodhna O'Connor - a podcast by Next Gen Fem

In episode 17 we had the pleasure of chatting with Dr Cliodhna O’Connor. Ciodhna is a post-doctoral researcher with the National Suicide Research Foundation. She previously worked on the My World Survey, the largest national study of youth mental health conducted by UCD and Jigsaw - the national centre for youth mental health. Cliodhna graduated with a PhD in Psychology from UCD in 2018. Her research focuses on risk and protective factors of mental health and the use of technology for improving wellbeing. As a former primary school teacher Cliodhna is interested in bridging Psychology and Education to improve mental health.

Cliodhna talks to us about her journey, what lead her down the road to become a researcher, and more, as we discuss the importance of mental health, especially given the current climate.

This week’s episode is full of interesting information and with a few laughs along the way.

We’re excited for you to hear our 17th episode, I hope you enjoy.
