Our friends at @EPICMuseumCHQ have compiled a handy (and free) resource list for primary and second level students. Including DIAS managed resources @DIAS_ISOS @SEA_SEIS INSN @NdeFaoite. #DIASdiscovers #homeschooling #Physics #celticstudies twitter.com/EPICMuseumCHQ/…
DIAS School of Theoretical Physics started recording their seminars when the pandemic began. Click to view the dedicated playlist on the DIAS YouTube Channel. Be sure to subscribe so not to miss future recordings. ▶️youtube.com/playlist?list=… #DIASdiscovers #physics #seminars
Meet the Judges of our Astrophotography Competition. First up is @EoinCarley of @DIASAstronomy. Eoin is a Schrödinger Research Fellow, currently working on observation of solar eruptions and flares using the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR). Learn more: dias.ie/2020/12/16/rea…
Congratulation to @edmatters on the launch of Ireland's Education Yearbook launched yesterday evening! If you missed it you can watch back at the below link! twitter.com/edmatters/stat…
The provision of such a resource has never been more important to allow Celtic studies scholars continue their work during the time of COVID.
The ISOS project was launched in 1999, and since then has digitised many historical Irish manuscripts from across the world. This work continues today.

Another example of COVID creativity arises from Celtic Studies researchers, who launched the Irish Script on Screen project, so Scholars worldwide could access ancient manuscripts online. So far this year there has been 2,676,399 hits on the on the website. @DIAS_ISOS
Our second example of creativity was from our Theoretical physicists, who continued their collaborative work on complex theorems by installing some blackboards on the railings outside DIAS to work safely in the open air. More: dias.ie/2021/01/13/dia… #DIASdiscovers #blackboard
This week we are looking back over the COVID year of 2020 and celebrating the adaptability of our researchers. First up was the successful COVID compliant @SEA_SEIS expedition in May 2020. Read More: dias.ie/2021/01/13/dia… #covid19 #research #DIASdiscovers #INSN #seismology
