UCD
Assistant Professor
Dr. Arman Rahman
A Bangladeshi Irish cancer researcher, Dr. Rahman works as an assistant professor at University College Dublin (UCD) School of Medicine and is responsible for Precision Oncology Ireland's Tissue Imaging Platform. After finishing his Ph.D. in Immunology from Umea University, Sweden, Dr. Rahman left his clinical practice and became a full-time academic researcher by joining his first postdoctoral fellowship training at DCU, Ireland in 2008. After a brief period of working in the field of antibody engineering in Dublin and Cambridge, Dr. Rahman concentrated on cancer biomarker development and validation using tissue-based detection techniques. For his contribution to developing the POI’s Tissue Imaging Platform, Dr. Rahman has been awarded the ‘Senior Researcher of the Year 2020’ by the Irish Cancer Society. A passionate advocate of engaging minority communities in cancer research, he has played a key role in organizing The Invisible Spectrum(www.precisiononcology.ie/engagement/theinvisiblespectrum/) for the past two years. Dr Rahman was bestowed with a UCD 2020 Values in Action (VIA) award. VIA awards celebrate individuals or teams/committees who act as ambassadors for UCD values through their daily work or establish initiatives that bring such values to life. In particular, he was recognised for his exceptional effort to debunk misinformation regarding COVID-19 during the pandemic; becoming a trusted and expert voice for scientific advances in the COVID-19 space for the Bangladeshi community within Ireland and globally.
