When will we have quantum computers? How might quantum mechanics help solve climate crisis/hasten drug discovery? What is Ireland's Quantum 2030 strategy? This month’s Discovery Rising Star is UCD theoretical physicist Dr Steve Campbell. Words/podcast: tinyurl.com/2f38pynj

Delighted to see Prof Pat Guiry Guiry Group awarded the BT Young Scientist Founders’ Medal, presented by Tony Scott. Pat has made an outstanding contribution to the BT Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition, as a long-standing judge and Chair of the Board. UCD Chemistry Royal Irish Academy

Very excited (as an engineer!) to visit CERN today in support of the plan for Irish membership. Pictured with Aoife McGarry, long-standing CERN champion in Ireland Prof Ronan McNulty of UCD Physics, and University College Dublin researchers at CERN past & present.

✨At CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, scientists accelerate beams of protons close to the speed of light, and smash them together to uncover fundamental truths about our universe. 📷Analysis of the collisions requires incredibly powerful 3-D cameras, or detectors, capable of

WE ARE HIRING Fancy to poke biomembranes & cells with nanometric tips to probe their morphology & mechano-elastic properties at the nanoscale? Join Prof Benedetto’s NanoBioPhysics Lab as RESEARCH ASSISTANT or POSTDOC (1-year) DEADLINE Mon 26th Feb Info at antoniobenedetto.eu/Join/

➡️ The Science Phase III project has seen major developments since the main contractor, BAM Ireland, took possession of the site in early October 2023, and quickly moved to wrap the Science North and West buildings in white protective material. In January 2024, the bridge

.UCD Physics seeks to appoint two Technical Officers to support the practical elements of the School's programmes, including those relevant to the MSc in Space Science and Technology. Closing date 6th March. Details here: universityvacancies.com/university-col…

Ahead of the “Scotland-Ireland Space: Growing the Space Economy Together” event in UCD tomorrow (Thurs) Professors Lorraine Hanlon and Prof Malcolm Macdonald ⊕ will speak to Pat Kenny Newstalk at 9.25am about how the successful Scottish space industry could point the way for Ireland.

We had a very early start yesterday (6am) to kick off the annual UCD Physics Astronomy field trip with our final year astro students. Loads of excitement visiting the large telescopes and walking through the tunnels to avoid the extreme cold/snow/wind when coming back at 3am

Well done to our Space Science & Technology MSc students University College Dublin UCD Physics on completing Space Mission Design in Tenerife with our colleagues at the Universities of Southampton Physics & Astronomy and La Laguna. Special thanks to PhD student Cuán & our former colleague Robert!

.UCD Library is undertaking a review of its guide to Academic Integrity to ensure the currency of the material, usefulness of the content, and ease of interaction with the guide. University College Dublin student take the survey to tell us how we can improve. Go to: libguides.ucd.ie/academicintegr…

On August 21st GMOD detected its first AND second gamma-ray bursts. gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/37231 gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/37232 We’re moderately pleased.

🛰️EIRSAT-1 has detected its first and second gamma-ray bursts! 💥Gamma-ray bursts are the most powerful explosions known in the universe. Identifying the origins of these events can help scientists to understand how the cosmos was formed. 🛰️EIRSAT-1 carries onboard a number of

Congratulations to all our UCD Science Physics students graduating today in Experimental Physics, Theoretical Physics and Astronomy and Space Science. Special congratulations to those receiving one of our 4 medals for each of the streams and best lab performance.
