His thesis, entitled ‘An examination of the Irish in South Africa, c.1921–61’, seeks to further our understanding of the Irish South African community by examining how the development of Ireland, Northern Ireland and South Africa impacted upon the relatively small Irish population on the southern tip of Africa.

Her research explores the history of the Irish community in La Rochelle (1602-1789), and focuses Irish men and women’s experiences of migration and integration in their receiving society.
