Victoria McTigue Fennell
About Me:
My name is Victoria. I’m from Clare but currently live in Cork for my research. I recently completed my undergraduate degree in pharmaceutical chemistry. I enjoy set-dancing, piano and going to the gym. I enjoyed chemistry in college and really liked my placement in a pharmaceutical company for the summer so I decided that I would like to become a researcher. I now live with my friends in Cork very near to UCC. Over the years I went to Science and chemistry balls at UCC which I really enjoyed.

Kynan Delaney
About Me:
I’m a biologist who has spent the last few years studying how insects change with age in the wild and in captivity. I am very interested in ecology and behaviour, and I enjoy making gadgets and coding, so I have made my own tools to measure how beetles’ behaviours and physical abilities change with age, and to track individuals over weeks or months in their natural habitat.
