Cell EXPLORERS Engagement of Young People in Hands-On Science

 

Cell EXPLORERS UL is just finishing its 8^th year of science engagement. The UL team is led by Audrey O’Grady, Stephanie Brosnan and Mary Barrett. Since commencing in 2015 we now have a dedicated space in the department for CE. The team is made up of Academics, Technicians, Undergrads and Postgrads, and we are always looking for more people to join!

The aim of CE is to:

·         Promote modern biology, science and research

·         Combat the stereotypical image of scientist

·         Change perceptions on science and inform on scientific careers

·         Train next generation of science communicators/educators
