Art at the microscale 🎨 With just one composite & particle size, researchers @ambercentre used photoresist & laser writing to craft 3D nanostructures. The clue: Through fine process control, they can cover the entire visible colour spectrum! 🌈 👉 ow.ly/5XJ350WnJG3

The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered its first exoplanet – TWA 7 b – which is similar in mass to Saturn. Prof. @lucaroundthewo1 from @TCD_physics was involved in the landmark work. Read more at: tcd.ie/news_events/ar…

Researchers from @tcdastro have gained new insights into how distant “exoplanets” form and what their atmospheres can look like after using @NASAWebb to image two in a faraway super-solar system in extraordinary detail. Read more at: tcd.ie/news_events/ar… #TrinityResearch

📢 Poster Session Highlights | day one of #ECMolS2025 We had a dynamic and intellectually rich poster sessions at the day end with vibrant exchange of ideas, visuals, and conversations. Thanks to all who presented and participated!

Here at #TCD enjoying the first day of #ECMOLS 2025 with so many exciting talks!

Excellent talk by @matteobriganti2 on exploring the molecular islands and spin signatures from the university of Florence here at #ECMOLS 2025

The @TCD_WaltonClub, a pioneering education initiative based in Trinity, recently celebrated a decade of empowering Ireland’s next STEM generation through dynamic, non-formal learning experiences. Read more at: tcd.ie/news_events/ar…

All Island Pitch Tar Drop shared learning day took place 27th March hosted by @TCD_physics @tcddublin & AMBER. 100 students who participated in All Island Pitch Tar Drop Experiment attended showcasing scientific posters of their own experiments #scicomm ambercentre.ie/pitch-tar-drop…

These amazing people have raised over €1250 euro for @CHI_Ireland Crumlin and @unicefireland through the annual @tcddublin @TCD_physics staff vs student charity football game. Thanks to @lucaroundthewo1 + the @tcdastro group for organising!

Today we welcomed secondary students from all over the island to a special shared learning day organised by the @ambercentre and @TCD_physics, at which students enjoyed some hands-on physics demos and spoke about their involvement in the all-island pitch tar drop experiment.

Great gathering of students and teachers who participated in The All Ireland Oil Pitch Experiment Thanks to @TCD_physics @ambercentre @IOP_Ireland
