Always an amazing time had at SciFest with 2025 no exception! Blown away by the creativity, curiosity, and confidence of the students with their respective projects that were on display at @dublincityuni.bsky.social. The future is in great hands!

Still reflecting on a busy but rewarding week at EOES 2025. Huge congrats to both Irish teams on their bronze wins - well deserved! The real prize, though, was the experiences had. Huge thanks to the organisers for their hard work and the excellent programme they delivered.

Team #Ireland preparing to embark to #Croatia for EOES 2025! After months of preparation and valuable input from various schools within @dublincityuni.bsky.social, and also the students themselves, we're now on our way and looking forward to what the next few days will bring

An intensive but really fun final two days of training with our IrEOES team representatives, courtesy of the Schools of Biotechnology, Chemical Sciences, and Physical Sciences at @dublincityuni.bsky.social. All are eager and enthusiastic for the event in Zagreb next week!

Fantastic to see Faculty of Science and Health/School of Biotechnology students Niall Ashfield and Malha Muhammed recognised for their efforts of engagement with staff, students, and wider communities at the recent DCU Presidents Awards. Richly deserved.

A great closing ceremony for the 24/25 DCU Mentorship Programme this evening. Once again, being involved in this programme proved incredibly rewarding, and it was a pleasure to have worked with my mentees over the course of the year. Looking forward to the 25/26 launch already.

A very engaging session on concussion in sport at @tcddublin.bsky.social earlier today. Great to hear from leading experts in the field, and the multifaceted approach being discussed towards improving player welfare

It was a great two days of science for the recent Round 3 of #IrEOES. Great enthusiasm from all of the students returning from Round 2 who had the opportunity to perform multiple experiments with our staff in the labs of @dublincityuni.bsky.social (1/2)

10 years+ since we shared this building as PhD students! Great to catch up with Prof. Pavle Mocilac and hear about his research in Lanzhou University on radiation therapy in the series of talks he delivered this week at @dublincityuni.bsky.social.

Team Ireland had a fantastic time at the International Junior Science Olympiad (IJSO) in Bucharest these past few days. Truly inspired by the talent of the next generation of scientists. Huge thanks to the organisers for an incredibly memorable event.
