This term the Development Education team\u2019s webinar series continues with a further two webinars endeavouring to inspire students to develop project ideas for the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition. Each year at the BTYSTE, a project addressing a challenge affecting poorer communities in the world earns the \u2018Science for Development\u2019 award and travel bursary sponsored by Irish Aid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both panels will feature students who exhibited at the BTYSTE in 2022, along with a guest scientist and a staff member from one of Self Help Africa\u2019s programme countries. Students, science teachers and scientists are invited to join these events and teachers are welcome to present the webinar in their classrooms via projector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Wednesday 28th September, students Aisling Browne and Sarah Humphreys from Col\u00e1iste Treasa in Kanturk will speak about their research on adopting anaerobic digestion for energy production on farms, and the willingness of farmers towards the use of insect protein in animal feed. Following this on 19th October, Weichen Huang from St. Andrew\u2019s College in Dublin will present his Met \u00c9ireann-awarded project on predicting extreme weather events using deep learning architectures.<\/p>\n\n\n
