Morgan Murphy celebrating the launch of the upcoming Cork Science Festival which takes place from 6-14 November. 

Science Week, which runs to November 14, celebrates science in our everyday lives across a wide variety of events involving industry, colleges, schools, teachers, researchers, and students throughout Ireland.

“I see Science Week as a time to promote all Stem subjects — science, technology, engineering and mathematics,” explains Professor Ita Richardson. “Stem is a basis for change, hopefully for the better, and we need girls and boys to consider how they can become good scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians.
