Kanturk welcomes back its Young Scientist winners

A reception honouring the country’s top young scientists took place at their school in north Cork last night.

Eimear Murphy and Ian O’Sullivan were crowned on Friday night at the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition for their study about the links between the drinking habits of parents and their teenage children.

The celebrations continued over the weekend in Dublin but they were cheered back home last night at Coláiste Treasa in Kanturk, where another event with the full body of over 500 students takes place this morning.
