Mike Hinchey
About Me:
I’m a software engineer, who has worked in the space industry (for NASA) and in universities in Ireland, USA, Australia and Sweden. Everyone assumes I love science fiction, which I don’t – except Red Dwarf, but that’s more comedy than sci-fi. One of my former students co-wrote the highest earning song of all time. Can you figure out what it is?

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.

Arman Azizi
About Me:
I am a researcher in the field of Electrical Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, and Mathematics.
I’m really into math because it’s like a big puzzle waiting to be solved. Math isn’t just about numbers and formulas; it’s actually a way of understanding the world around us. Think about how we use math for everything from building skyscrapers to figuring out how fast a car is moving or even understanding the patterns in nature! For me, solving math problems is like going on a little adventure. You start with a question, use a bit of creativity, and then, with some logic, you find the answer.
