@TFIupdates @dublinbusnews what is happening with the e2 this evening? Waiting at stop 2041 for over 45 minutes...3 busses supposted to show up according to the app and never did. Over 90-year old woman waiting over an hour twenty for an e2, unacceptable, even if short staffed

[Tadhg Ó Cróinín @TadhgOCroinin]

Very proud supervisor! Well done @eogorman1499.. and apologies for my appalling photo taking skills😂!! #Microbio25

[Tadhg Ó Cróinín @TadhgOCroinin]

Also giving a talk in the infection forum tomorrow…. Although we are in UCDs main campus in Ireland and not this new one in the UK…😉 #Microbio25 @MicrobioSoc

@Aircoach leaving people further down the n11 with no easy connection to the airport now. I'm now going from an easy walk to the aircoach stop to having to get a dublin bus to another aircoach stop. Who's to say there's even space to get on dublin bus with my suitcases.

[Liz @eogorman1499]

@TFIupdates why did an E2 with about 10 people on it blow past the UCD stop at 6:20 despite everyone's hand out? With that being the first bus in 20 minutes? Unacceptable

[Tadhg Ó Cróinín @TadhgOCroinin]

Congrats to @DavidZP17 for defending his PhD viva today. A privilege to be his supervisor along with @padward947 as part of @Bioremia2!!

Today, I am publishing the 1st report of the independent review on PhD researchers.

Key recommendations about how we better support researchers. Determined to act on this. Further work will now continue.

A great day full of fantastic talks and poster presentations!
Well done to all who presented their work, we're already looking forward to next year 😊

Extremely well deserved !!

PhD researchers are protesting because stipends are set at the poverty line. Not even minimum wage. €18,500 a year.
"EU-Average PhD researcher pay is €32,100, and in Nordic countries pay starts at €50,000 and progresses to €55,000 on a fixed four-year contract"

[Michelle Fox @MichelleFoxAnat]

Great turn out today for PhDs demanding better pay and workers rights.
@SimonHarrisTD I hope you’re listening !

Can't wait for @ucddublin to follow suit!

[Trinity College Dublin @tcddublin]

Trinity has taken key steps to improve #funding for #PhD researchers, including consolidating the University’s three internal #postgraduate #research schemes and increasing their associated #stipends to €25,000.

[Dublin Inquirer @DublinInquirer]

PhD students have formed a new union and its members – especially those from outside the EU – say they are hoping for a fairer future. Jovan Jeromela and Alok Debnath say they didn’t understand the extent of inequality in the Irish system before they came.

@dublinbusnews 2007. It took nearly 40 minutes to get a very popular bus route with tons of other students unable to get on

[Liz @eogorman1499]

@dublinbusnews been waiting for a 145 155 or 46a by ucd and after a half hour 2 buses showed up completely packed with no room. Where are the buses?

[Liz @eogorman1499]

@dublinbusnews and a 3rd completely full bus
