Science Week 2021 is here!
With so many amazing science themed events happening online and in the flesh - this year is set to be one of the best yet.
It's a time to celebrate the people in the white coats with big hair... (and sometimes covered in hair) It runs from Nov 7-13.
So, to tell us all about it Weekend Breakfast with Alison Curtis are absolutely delighted to have world renowned Immunologist and Professor of Biochemistry at Trinity College Dublin - Professor Luke O’Neil.
He told Paula MacSweeney (in for Alison) why it's his favourite time of the year...like a mini Christmas!
This year’s theme for Science week focuses around the Creating Our Future campaign – an opportunity to discuss and explore the collective future that they want for Irish society.
There will be 12 pre-recorded Science Shows for Primary Schools available.
From The role of STEM in caring for elephants at Dublin Zoo to Rocket Science with Dr. Naomi Lavelle to Ocean Challenges and Actions with Galway Atlantaquarium - There’s even A Mindful Movement and Meditation Workshop.
And this year there will be 13 Science Week Festivals taking place all across the country.
