Shape I’m In: Aoibhinn Ní Shúilleabháin

SCIENCE is where it’s all at for former Rose of Tralee Aoibhinn Ní Shúilleabháin. 

She recently completed her PhD in mathematics and has taken up a position in UCD’s science department. When she is not lecturing undergraduates, she is globetrotting for The Science Squad. The third series is due to air on RTE One at the end of October.

“I’m really looking forward to it,” she says. “I think it’s the best series we’ve done. For one part, I travel to Uganda following a beautiful story where primary school kids get to have water that wasn’t going to make them sick. There is so many way that science effects our lives all round.”
