In September 2021 we welcomed 19 transition year students from seven schools in Dublin and North Wicklow to the UCD Conway Institute and Systems Biology Ireland for an immersive week of hands on activities. Fifteen post-graduate and post-doctoral researchers from our two research institutes planned and delivered the week of activities for the students.

ABE Ireland recently hosted an event to show our appreciation for teachers this year. Thirty ABE Ireland teachers joined us online on Wednesday 12^th May at our annual teacher Recognition Event.
