Discover Research Night Dublin
50 science-themed events take place in central Dublin this evening as part of Discover Research night. The free annual Europe wide event aims to open up the work of scientists and researchers in the capital.
Events taking place around the city centre will include 3D visualisations of the brain, a chance to tour lab facilities and an opportunity to help astrophysicists rank solar eruptions seen in the sun. There are also research debates and /workshops. So if Culture Night wasn't your thing last Friday, give Research Night a go!
For a full program of events, starting at 4pm, see Discover Research Dublin or @ResearchDublin
