Síobhra Aiken joined the Department of Irish and Celtic Studies in April 2021. She holds a BA in European Studies (History, French & Spanish) from Trinity College, an MA in Irish Studies from the National University of Ireland, Galway, and a Postgraduate Diploma in Irish-language Translation and Editing from Maynooth University. She was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship in 2013 and spent a year teaching and researching at Elms College in Springfield, Massachusetts.

She graduated with a PhD in 2020 from the Centre for Irish Studies, National University of Ireland, Galway. Her doctoral dissertation was awarded the Adele Dalsimer Prize by the American Conference for Irish Studies in 2021.

Her research interests include: modernist Irish-language poetry; twentieth-century Irish-language literature; the Gaelic Revival in the United States; 'trauma' and emigration during the Irish Revolution (1916–23); fictionalised testimony by veterans of the Irish Revolution; comparative studies of the Irish and Spanish Civil Wars; the poetry of Máirtín Ó Direáin and Máire Mhac an tSaoi.

Her publications include two edited books, three edited journals as guest\
 editor, an exhibition, a number of peer-reviewed articles and chapters and numerous journalistic articles. Her two edited books include: *The Men Will Talk to Me: Ernie O'Malley's Interviews with the Northern Divisions* (2018) and *An Chuid Eile Díom Féin: Aistí le Máirtín Ó Direáin* (2018); the latter won the Phelan Conan Award for Irish-language publication in 2020. She has also contributed to a variety of television documentaries and radio programmes. In October 2022, she guest edited a special edition of the literary journal on the poet, essayist and diplomat Máire Mhac an tSaoi.

Her first monograph, *Spiritual Wounds: Trauma, Testimony and the Irish Civil War*, was published in April 2022 by Irish Academic Press. The book featured in the *Times Literary Supplement*'s books of 2022 and was awarded the Michael J. Durkan Prize for Books in Language and Culture 2022 by the American Conference of Irish Studies (ACIS). *Spiritual Wounds* was also awarded the 2023 Whitfield prize from the Royal Historical Society; the Whitfield prize is awarded annually to the best first book in British or Irish history and is described as ‘one of the most sought after book prizes for early career historians’. *Spiritual Wounds* has been generously reviewed in a number of outlets, including in [*Irish Studies Review*](https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/09670882.2023.2163746), [*Estudios Irlandeses*](https://www.estudiosirlandeses.org/reviews/spiritual-wounds-trauma-testimony-and-the-irish-civil-war-siobhra-aiken-2022/), [*Études irlandaises*](https://journals.openedition.org/etudesirlandaises/17679), *[Irish University Review](https://www.euppublishing.com/doi/full/10.3366/iur.2023.0599)*, *Irish Archives, [TheIrishStory.com](https://www.theirishstory.com/2022/06/11/book-review-spiritual-wounds-trauma-testimony-and-the-irish-civil-war/)*, *[Tuairisc.ie](https://tuairisc.ie/scealta-chogadh-na-gcarad-i-mbearla-agus-i-ngaeilge-i-sarleabhar-staire/)*, *[Sunday Business Post](https://www.businesspost.ie/life-arts/book-review-spiritual-wounds-lifting-the-lid-on-a-tormented-traumatised-national-psyche/)*, *[Women’s History Association of Ireland](https://womenshistoryassociation.com/book-reviews/2022-book-reviews/review-of-siobhra-aikens-spiritual-wounds-by-lorraine-grimes/#:~:text=Through%20the%20underused%20source%20of,based%20violence%20and%20Irish%20literature.)*, *[Blosc](https://blosc.wordpress.com/2022/07/10/leirmheas-aiken-spiritual-wounds/)*, *[Comhar](https://comhar.ie/iris/82/9/spiritual-wounds-trauma-testimony-the-irish-civil-war/)*, *[History Ireland](https://www.historyireland.com/spiritual-wounds-trauma-testimony-the-irish-civil-war/)*, and the [*Irish Times*](https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/books/review/2022/12/30/spiritual-wounds-a-riposte-to-the-idea-that-after-the-irish-civil-war-nobody-wanted-to-talk-about-it/).

She is currently completing a second monograph – provisionally entitled *GAELTACHT SPRINGFIELD: Pádraig Ó hÉigeartaigh & pobal na nGael san Oileán Úr* – which is an examination of the efforts by early twentieth-century immigrants in the industrial city of Springfield, Massachusetts to sustain an Irish-speaking enclave in their adopted home.

In 2023, Dr Aiken was selected to form part of the Young Academy Ireland – an all-island network of 40 early career researchers and innovators based out of the Royal Irish Academy. She is also a board member of Glór na Móna and is involved in the [Meitheal Mheantóireachta](https://www.glornamona.com/general/new-mentoring-scheme-an-mheitheal-mheantoireachta-launched-as-part-of-west-belfast-irish-language-festival/?lang=en) – a mentorship scheme that contributes to the ongoing community revival of Irish in Belfast by supporting those currently employed in the Irish language sector or seeking to work in the sector.
