Offering students the opportunity to secure a premier biological qualification
Cell Explorers 2025
The Cell EXPLORERS programme (www.cellexplorers.ie) is a STEM outreach initiative that is focused on promoting science activities in national schools throughout Ireland.
As a member of the Cell EXPLORERS Network, the Department of Biological Sciences is helping to address the national shortfall in science education by engaging with schools and the local community, providing an opportunity for primary school children to meet with scientist and perform hands-on science experiments.
The MTU Cell EXPLORERS team comprises staff and students from the Department of Biological Sciences that support the delivery of the ‘The Fantastic DNA Roadshow’ and as a team have participated in many events, including school site visits and science festivals.
