      I have been awarded several fellowships (4 year work contacts to do research) based on my previous work and current ideas, but no award as such yet. These are for later (I hope)! 🙂

      The first ever award I got in science was at the Young Scientists’ Exhibition when I was in my junior cert year – I am still really proud of that award, I’ve just posted a pic of it on my profile for you to see (click on the ‘read more’ under the About Me heading).

      I did a study on bats with my friend Marie for this project and our school bought us some ‘bat detectors’ so that we could track the bats’ flight path at night. We spent a whole summer pointing these detectors at the night sky and mapping out the flight paths.
      Did you know that bats are NOT blind ? … it’s one of the many myths about bats.
