The human brain is surely one of the most complex and fascinating creations in all of nature. It's through them that we experience the world around us, develop knowledge and skills, and carry within us memories of events and experiences that occurred decades in the past, which we can later draw on to face new challenges. But when it comes to understanding exactly what is going on between our ears, we're only just starting to scratch the surface. Could artificial intelligence technology help us in this quest? In this episode, we're joined by Prof Andrew Saxe, a computational neuroscientist based at University College London. He tells us about the work his lab is carrying out on modelling the function of our brains using artificial intelligence, what this research has already uncovered about how our brains learn and what we can look forward to discovering in the coming decade or so. Andrew is a finalist for the Blavatnik Awards for Young Scientists.   https://blavatnikawards.org/news/items/finalists-announced-2025-uk-blavatnik-awards-young-scientists/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Thousands of members of the public descended upon the RDS in Dublin for day two of the 61st BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (BTYSTE) today, which also saw the curtain lift on this year's Primary Science Fair. The Primary Science Fair, which is an integral, non-competitive part of the exhibition, gives third to sixth class primary school students across Ireland the chance to learn more about science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), make friends, and have fun! BT Young Scientist This year, over 1,000 primary school students representing 35 schools across Ireland are showcasing their projects at the RDS Dublin today, January 09 and tomorrow, January 10. The ideas that students have developed across the seventy projects on display cover a wide range of STEM topics, such as biodiversity, energy forces and living things. The projects are judged by former BTYSTE overall winners, some of whom previously participated in the Primary Science Fair themselves, and who volunteer their time to support the growth of interest in STEM in younger generations. Elsewhere at the RDS, the anticipation is mounting amongst the BTYSTE participants, as in just twenty-fours' time, the winning projects will be announced. Finalists were at the ready to showcase their projects to the judging panel. Speaking on the judging process, Dr Peter Taylor, 2025 BTYSTE judge said: ''It's an honour to be a part of the judging panel at the 61st BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition and join all the team at BT Ireland in celebrating 25 years as custodian of this phenomenal event. I feel very lucky to have played a part at the exhibition throughout those years, first as a participant and overall winner in 2001 and now for several years judging the amazing projects from finalists. This year has been no different when it comes to the calibre of entries on display, and the judges and I have an extremely challenging task of choosing the winners in the hours ahead. The BTYSTE was my first exposure to the world of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), and the exhibition played no small part in steering my career into a STEM field. I am delighted to see so many young people in Ireland enter the exhibition each year, and to see the event itself evolve into the national and cultural institution it has become today. I congratulate all this year's finalists for their incredible work - they should be extremely proud for getting this far.'' Tomorrow, final judging and deliberation will get underway from early, before the 2025 BTYSTE awards ceremony begins at 5:30pm. Anticipation is already building to find out which projects will be recognised this year, in addition to the announcement of the overall winner for 2025. Additionally, 60 brilliant stands from the exhibition's partners, including the Department of Education, Analog Devices, Amgen, Stripe and RTÉ will be set up throughout the RDS.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 16ú lá de mí Eanair, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1979 fuair siad amach gur tháinig níos mó bainne as na mbó má raibh na daoine deas chuig na mbó. Tháinig an staidéar ó Dr Martin ó Ollscoil Nottingham. Rinne sé comparáid idir dhá bhó ag an am agus tháinig níos mó bainne as an mbó a láimhseáil na daoine níos fearr. I 2002 tharla scaoileadh gunnaí ag Ollscoil I Meiriceá. Mharaíodh triúir duine ann. Ag an deireadh beir ceithre mhic léinn air agus tháinig na gardaí. I 2002 bhuaigh mic léinn an Chláir deich ngradam ag an Young Scientist. Fuair scoil I Lios Dúin Bhearna an méid is mó ghradam ar an lá. I 2013 tháinig ionadaí áitiúil an Chláir amach ag lorg áit chónaithe do thionóntaí frithshóisialta, cosúil le cad a bhí ag dul ar aghaidh in Amstardam. Sin The Village People le YMCA an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo i 1979. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 2000, bhí ráflaí ann gur chaill Mick Jagger an seans do ridireacht de bharr gur chuaigh sé ar strae. Tháinig Tony Blair amach ag rá go raibh amhras aige. I 2008 bhí imní faoi shábháilteacht ag na gardaí I Londain agus de bharr sin níor chan Radiohead ag a cheolchoirm ar an lá seo I 2008. Bhog siad an cheolchoirm chuig áit eile tar éis a tháinig níos mó ná 1000 duine chuig an chéad áit. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Kate Moss sa Bhreatain I 1974 agus rugadh Lin Manuel Miranda I Nua Eabhrac I 1980 agus seo chuid de a amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 13ú lá de mí Eanair, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1978 d'admhaigh ceannairí aontachtach gur thaisteal siad chuig Strasbourg chun troid I gcoinne maoiniú do thionscnamh trasteorann. Tháinig John Taylor amach faoi imní a bhí aige den mhí-úsáid den airgead. I 2012 thaisteal Brendan Gleeson agus Michael Fassbender chuig LA go dtí an Golden Globes. Bhí ainmniúchán ag Sinead O Connor agus bhí sí ag féachaint ar óna tí. Bhí ainmniúchán ag Brendan Gleeson don aisteoir is fearr agus bhí Michael Fassbender ainmnithe don ghradam chéanna. I 1978 bhí saothar slándáil in Aerfort na Sionainne nuair a tháinig Cyrus Vance chuig an chontae. Bhuail Vance le Michael O Kennedy chun labhairt faoin trasteorann in Éirinn. I 1981 tháinig Catherine Conlon amach ar barr mar Ireland's Young Scientist. Is as Baile Átha Cliath í ach tháinig a mháthair Delia Kerin ó Chill na Móna. Sin Flo Rida le Good Feeling an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2012. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 2003 bhí Diana Ross sa chúirt I Meiriceá nuair a bhí sí ag tiomáint thar an teorann le halcól. I 2010 bhí Beyoncé agus Jay-Z an cúpla leis an méid is mó airgid. Tháinig an liosta amach san iris Forbes. Dúradh gur thuill siad níos mó ná 122 milliún dollar idir 2008 agus 2009. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Orlando Bloom sa Bhreatain I 1977 agus rugadh aisteoir Patrick Dempsey I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1966 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de ar an lá seo.

A fourteen-year-old has won the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. Sirish Subash created a device called Pestiscand. It is a handheld device for at-home use to detect pesticide residue on produce without damaging the food. It measures the wavelength of light reflecting off of fruits and vegetables and uses a machine-learning model to analyse the data. Users download a phone app, point Pestiscand at the produce, tap the scan button and voilà, they see if their apple or spinach needs another rinse.

Seán O'Sullivan, winner of the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (BTYSTE) 2024, has been awarded second place and the 2025 Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair Prize at the 2024 EU Contest for Young Scientists (EUCYS) in Katowice, Poland. Sean (17), a 6th year student at Coláiste Chiaráin, Limerick was recognised by the EUCYS judging panel for his BTYSTE winning project, titled 'VerifyMe: A new approach to authorship attribution in the post-ChatGPT era'. Sean's project considered the challenges of author verification in the context of the significant improvements in Large Language Models (LLMS) like ChatGPT, as the line between human-written and AI-generated text has blurred, leaving academia and industry searching for a reliable method to determine "true" human authorship. At the EUCYS, Sean competed against 250 young scientists aged between 14-20 years old from nearly 40 countries in the EU, as well as guest projects from the United States and beyond. Speaking on his achievement, Seán O'Sullivan said, "It was an honour to travel to Katowice, Poland and represent Ireland at one of the world's most prestigious science fairs. With so many fascinating, important projects on display, I am absolutely thrilled to take home the second place prize at the competition." Mari Cahalane, Head of the BTYSTE, said, "As Ireland's representative at the EUCYS, Seán is an incredible advocate for Ireland's science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) sector and showcases the very best of the talent that comes from the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition each year. "Here at BT Ireland, we are all incredibly proud of Sean's achievements we would encourage as many students as possible to get their entries in for the BTYSTE 2025 before the deadline for applications closes at the end of the month. Not only will finalists have the chance to showcase their amazing ideas at Ireland's leading school STEM exhibition, BTYSTE, the overall winner will like Seán did this year, will represent Ireland at next year's EUCYS." Applications are open for the BTYSTE 2025 until 5 pm on September 27th and the 2025 Exhibition will take place from January 08-11 in Dublin. To enter, all students need to do is fill out an online application form and simply submit a one-page proposal outlining their idea. Qualified entries will be announced at the end of October and will be showcased at BTYSTE 2025 in January.

The winner of the 2024 BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (BTYSTE), Seán O'Sullivan, is representing Ireland at EU Contest for Young Scientists. Seán's BTYSTE winning project, titled 'VerifyMe: A new approach to authorship attribution in the post-ChatGPT era', will be on display again at the EUCYS, from 9th - 14th September. An Taoiseach met with Seán at Government Buildings, Merrion Street Upper, Dublin to wish him good luck before he officially representsIreland at one of the biggest and most important student science fairs in the world. Each year, the EUCYS showcases the best of scientific achievement in the European Union and beyond, and over the past 34 years Ireland has had an exceptional track record in this competition, having won 17 first place prizes. Winners of the BTYSTE 2023, Liam Carew and Shane O'Connor, took home the runner-up prize at EUCYS 2023, and Seán is looking forward tocompeting against 250 young scientists from nearly 40 countries throughout the EU, as well as guest projects from the United States and beyond. Shay Walsh, Managing Director at BT Ireland said, "Not only is BT Ireland very proud to be custodians of the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition, but each year our winners play an important role representing Ireland at one of the most important STEM events in Europe. "I would like to wish Seán the very best of luck at this year's EUCYS. His project demonstrates the exceptional talent and amazing project ideas on display at the BTYSTE, and we're really looking forward to cheering him on as he represents Ireland at EUCYS."

"I heard elders talk about 'the shakes,' but I now know that language reflects deep historical inequities that have denied us access to healthcare, knowledge, and research that could help us alleviate burdens and strengthen our health—enough with the shakes!" —Senegal Alfred Mabry, in CellParkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder in the United States. According to a 2022 study, some 90,000 people a year in the US are diagnosed with Parkinson's. It's a progressive disease that worsens over time, producing unintended or uncontrollable movements, such as tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with balance and coordination.Researchers are working to better understand the causes of the disease, how it connects to other health conditions, and how to slow or prevent its effects. Senegal Alfred Mabry is a third year PhD student in neuroscience at Cornell University, and was recently named a recipient of this year's Rising Black Scientist Award by Cell Press. His research involves interoception—a sense that allows the body to monitor its own processes—and the autonomic nervous system. He joins Ira to talk about his research into Parkinson's disease, and the importance of scientific research being connected to communities.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.
