Good turnout for the first meeting of the Galway Green Labs initiative in @nuigalway supported by EXPLORE - NUI Galway. Some great ideas for reducing energy consumption and plastic waste to minimise the environmental impact of laboratory based research. Watch this space! #galwaygreenlabs

@nuigalway has already exceeded the target of 33% energy savings set for public bodies and has set a more ambitious target of 40% saving for 2020.There has also been a 150% increase in onsite renewable energy generation. @NUIGsustain vision for a green, smart & healthy campus

Great tips from @GreenCampusNUIG on reducing #energy consumption over Christmas and in the New Year.

Back on Twitter after long absence. Things neurosciencey to follow shortly....

Best in 2018: It is not easy, but I have chosen my best 4 photos of @nuigalway in 2018. Two of them have never been shown b4.

Dear EU. We made a terrible mistake. We listened to the wrong people. We would much rather be in an alliance with 28 States than alone with the mad fuck Trump. Please can we come back. Yours the sensible party.

It is gloriously ironic that #Brexit has ended up illustrating so powerfully the benefits for small countries of independence in Europe.

NUIG's Galway Neurocience Centre Research Day is tomorrow - it's an interesting programme! Should be fun! See ncbes.eurhost.net/neuroscience.a…
