‘Universities exist to move towards margins not away from them’ Excellent and thought provoking inaugural lecture by our new President @micireland.bsky.social Dermot Nestor last night on the importance of unlearning as much as learning and resistance and refusal as much as acceptance.

So far I've heard some really rich and interesting stories from my participants on how second-gen identity is negotiated in contemporary Ireland. Still looking for more participants, and would appreciate another push from my Irish followers if possible 🙏 #spéirghorm #identity #migration #Ireland

As the theme of #WorldMentalHealthDay this year is focused on ‘access to services’ it seems timely to throwback to research we published last year around parenting while experiencing mental health challenges and challenges in accessing support @rtebrainstorm.bsky.social www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2...

rte.ie

How can we support parents with mental health challenges?

Irish research estimates that roughly one in four families in Ireland have a parent who has experienced mental health difficulties

Working within Universities means that I often have the opportunity to hear incredible speakers on a wide range of topics but I think today’s talk @micireland.bsky.social by NASA astronaut Dan Tani might be the coolest talk I have been lucky enough to hear 🚀 🌍

How do the 'second-gen' make sense of who they are? How do discourses of 'Irishness' influence how they talk about belonging. The stories I have heard so far have been incredible, full of humour, candid vulnerability, and agency. I am really excited about where this research project is going.

This is absolute genius @jessmaddox.bsky.social and as a LOVER of research since 1989 I will be FEARLESS in my commitment to SPEAK NOW and EVERMORE so that these become the stuff of FOLkLORE in my lectures which I write after MIDNIGHT in RED pen to confirm my REPUTATION as an academic SHOWGIRL

What does it mean to call Ireland 'home'? What is it like to be asked 'where are you originally from?' How is 'Irishness' navigated and experienced amond second-generation young adults? If you know anyone who might be interested in taking part then please share with them 🙏

Braun says no (yeah nah) to AI. That coding and analysis is a human endeavour. Coding should not be thought of as a laborious task that needs to be completed quickly and “free from bias”, but rather as a worthwhile, enjoyable, and creative experience, where we are the interpreters #qmip2025
