Growing up with neurodisability - Exploring care, research, and real experiences at every stage of life.
Monday, 5 October, 2026
When many people think about neurodisability, they think about childhood. Yet for thousands of people in Ireland, including those living with cerebral palsy, neurodisability is a lifelong experience that shapes education, work, relationships, family life and ageing. In this MyHealth RCSI episode, we'll bring together people with lived experience, family members, researchers and clinical experts to explore what it means to live well with neurodisability across the lifespan. Professor Niall Pender, Head of Department of Health Psychology at the School of Population Health, RCSI hosts the discussion. Joining Niall for this important conversation are: Professor Jennifer Ryan, Associate Professor and Director CP-Life Research Centre, located in the School of Physiotherapy, RCSI Dr Louise Baker, Honorary Clinical Lecturer, RCSI; Consultant Paediatrician in neuro-disability at CHI Temple St and the Central Remedial Clinic Vicki Casserly, Parent, Disability Advocate, Public Representative, Community Lead at CP-Life Research Centre Dr Mary-Elaine McCavert, person with lived experience of cerebral palsy; post-doctoral researcher in CP-Life Research Centre Want to hear more?
