UCD SCHOOL OF BIOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The UCD School of Biology and Environmental Science, in collaboration with UCD Alumni Relations, were delighted to reconnect alumni, retired staff and friends at an on-campus barbecue overlooking the lake. Taking place in the UCD University Club on a sunny Friday evening in May, the get-together was an excellent opportunity for friends, colleagues, classmates and staff to celebrate 58 years of science research and education and to reminisce about their time spent at UCD. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

UCD SCHOOL OF PHYSICS <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The UCD School of Physics held its annual lecture and reception for alumni in the UCD O\u2019Brien Centre for Science in May. Alumni and friends heard from fellow alumna Professor Winnie Svendsen from the Technical University of Denmark. The title of Professor Svendsen\u2019s talk was \u2018NanoBio Physics \u2013 a Tool for Biology\u2019 which covered her research journey from atomic and nuclear physics to probing and manipulating biology using micro and nanotechnology. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE COLLEGE OF SCIENCE MILESTONE REUNION <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Graduates of the UCD College of Science gathered in the University Club on the morning of the UCD Festival to celebrate their milestone reunion. Friendships were reignited with classmates from the graduating years of 1982, 1992, 2002 and 2012. They chatted over breakfast cocktails and brunch before going to the Science building to explore a selection of more than 40 science-based activities and events happening as part of the Festival. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
