I'm a divil for side projects, but helping with NDPAC & LaunchPAD — and seeing real supports for disabled postgrads/ECRs emerge — is wonderful. Thanks to @research_ireland, NDPAC, LaunchPAD & AHEAD Ireland.

This is a little late, but I passed my Viva last month, and this week my PhD corrections were accepted - wrapping up (almost) 5 amazing years. I am very grateful for all those who have supported me along the way. A particularly huge thanks to Mark Pickering and Niamh Burke

As storms are becoming a larger and more frequent part of our lives, we met with Professor Iris Moller, Erica Krueger, and Stephan Hügel from @tcd_geography to see how sand can act as a natural buffer to provide protection during these intense weather conditions.

We had a great day in Wicklow where our presenter, Amy, met with stonemason John McEvoy at McEvoy and Sons Stone Masons to find out more about the granite that is quintessential in the restoration of our architectural heritage. #10thingstoknowabout @geologicalsurveyirel
