Her current research interests centre on migrations and diasporas.[1] She has been a key figure in the documentation of The Irish Diaspora.[2]

An important analysis of nineteenth-century attitudes by Mary J. Hickman and Bronwen Walter showed that the 'Irish Catholic' was one viewed as an "other" or a different race in the construction of the British nationalist myth.[3]
