From Kiel, Germany, to Braga, Portgual to Cork, Ireland; YEASTDOC ESRs put together a fantastic display of science for the public on European Researcher’s Night.
Through science demos, displays and posters, visitors learned about the relevance of yeast biotechnology to our everyday lives and had a bit of fun at the same time. Photo gallery

Well done to Lorena for her great poster presentation at SMYTE36 (Small Meeting of Yeast Transport & Energetics) which took place in Italy from 6-9 September 2018. The first of many for our YEASTDOC ESRs.

On 20th March YEASTDOC coordinator John Morrissey gave a talk on redesigning yeast to make different flavours, as part of the Lifelong Learning Festival in Cork. It was a fun, interactive evening where the 50/60 attendees were invited to smell a variety of yeast cultures to see if they could identify the different aromas being produced. A local beer sommelier and qualified wine taster guided participants through the flavours and aromas in a variety of craft beers and fine wines.
