In our latest #podcast Catherine Eadie chats with Dr Luis Soares of University of Edinburgh about why mental health often stays invisible at work, and how pace, pressure and output-driven cultures quietly undermine wellbeing.

This synergy between science and proactive governance is a model that can be used worldwide for health-related initiatives.

Huge thanks to our international collaborators and the EPA for funding this vital work! 🙏

Our two new papers in Environment International show the power of high-resolution HBM in identifying health impacts from environmental exposures.

By engaging experts early, we’re ensuring Ireland’s approach to chemical safety is both scientifically robust & policy-relevant. 🔬🌍

To translate science into action, we used a participatory World Café methodology to: 🔹 Co-design a roadmap for national HBM infrastructure. 🔹 Prioritise chemicals of concern for the Irish population. 🔹 Align research with the practical needs of the @epa-ireland.bsky.social.

Bridging the Gap: Exploring policy-makers' insights for a national human biomonitoring programme in Ireland. 🇮🇪🧬

Our UCD-led team has conducted the first World Café studies with policy-makers to establish the framework for HBM4IE.

Science alone doesn't create change—policy does. 🧵

Our beloved Sky crossed the rainbow bridge today after an eight month battle with lymphoma. He was 16 and still a fighter to the end. He gave us more love than any human could, pure and unconditional. We’re absolutely devastated. Look after your fur babies peeps 😭 #CatsofBluesky

And that’s a wrap on 2025 for the UCD Staff Community Choir! Four Christmas performances done! 2026 will be an exciting year for us as we prepare to celebrate ten years of singing together! 🎉🍾 @ucddublin.bsky.social @caoimhe1.bsky.social

So proud of Dr Carolyn Ingram as she was conferred today. She was a dream to work with first as my research assistant then as my PhD student. I had the greatest privilege of being her supervisor and mentor. Her research brought me to tears many times it was so excellent! @ucddublin.bsky.social

Sky is still with us. He’s small now as he battles cancer but he’s happy and doing well. At nearly sixteen he’s still a fighter! He was meant to cross the rainbow bridge six months ago but the force is still very strong with this one!

Lectures are over for 2025! The next three weeks, my diary is literally endless meetings for practically every day?!?! Is that what we do now? Just push all the meetings and seminars into December? 🤷🏼‍♂️ 😖 😵‍💫 oh well grading in early January then!

It’s a rough day for a wild swim at Curracloe but we still got in and had great fun! Much needed time with family and nature at a time when I am reflecting on my future and what path to take in my career. Maybe it’s restlessness or maybe I just need to move on. Either way I’ll figure my path 🤔😌

Lol there’ll be some in Irish higher education very unhappy with this 😂 oh dear oh dear 😂

Carbon dioxide levels increase by record amount to new highs in 2024

Wished there was a positive spin here. Yeah, solar PV and batteries…, but this is scary

Somehow I survived yet another rapture! Oh well better get those lectures ready for Friday I guess #rapture

Always a great start to the UCD Certificate in Safety and Health at Work. Best of luck to the class of 2025/26 as they begin their journey with us! Congratulations to Angela Kane for her well deserved Peter A Start Gold Medal from the class of 2024/25! @ucddublin.bsky.social

And the UCD Staff Community Choir returned today to start its 9th year together! 🎉🥰

My Mam would’ve been 79 today, she’s gone nearly 8 years yet I still feel her presence in her kitchen so I always leave roses for her here so she knows we celebrate her all the time. Happy Birthday Mam 😘🎉🎂

Perfect day for a swim at Curracloe after a hectic first week back teaching! Self care is so important as we need to look after ourselves so we can look after our students as they start their new journeys with us!

Peace and quiet! Realising how much I need nature in my life on this holiday. Hmmmmm contemplating improving my French so I could move here 😉

While I didn’t post any photos for #InternationalCatDay we had good news at the vets today!!! He isn’t dying on us just yet and we’re keeping him well so hopefully we’ll have him for longer! He’s already beaten the odds according to our vet and he’s happy and doing well so long may it last! 🥰
