O'Reilly hall looking magnificent on this rare bluebird day in the north east. Not very authetic for #Cilia2024 delegates who might want the full Irish experience !!! If you're one, don't worry, rain and Ireland are almost guaranteed.

Huge well done to the Clonaslee St Manmans u14 girls with their Laois C county final win. They have played stellar all summer. What a great team !

Big shout out to Busitalia Veneto for their excellent service from Padova to Marco Polo airport. Fast, regular, and very affordable. So many taking expensive and C02 unfriendly airport taxis from my hotel. Bus goes from across the street !!! Come on people !!!!

Wonderful to see Luxturna gene therapy (RPE65 gene) for sight loss being used in Ireland, and how it can be effective in adults. Great work by Mater Hospital hospital, Prof David Keegan, and wider support from the Fighting Blindness charity.

Thrilled that #cryoEM imaging is coming to UCD Conway Institute as a national facility. researchireland.ie/news/minister-… Huge thanks to Research Ireland and University College Dublin for funding this important infrastructure.
