Representing a diverse range of topics within Physics, these talented researchers highlighted the vital contributions women are making in science today. UL also played a prominent role in the prestigious Rosse Medal competition, which celebrates the best in postgraduate science communication. This year, the top honour was awarded to UL\u2019s very own Krishna Hari, pictured 2nd for the right, marking a proud moment for the university and further affirming its commitment to supporting and championing women in STEM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2442\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-510x382.png 510w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-1080x810.png 1080w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-678x509.png 678w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-326x245.png 326w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-80x60.png 80w, https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Left to right: Niamh Hickey, Kristine O&#8217;Dwyer, Pupak Amini, Alana Fox, Tara Ryan, Krishna Hari, &amp; Varsha Sasikmuar<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Women in STEM continue to make waves across disciplines, and a strong contingent from the University of Limerick recently showcased their excellence at the Institute <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/2025\/03\/24\/ul-physics-girls-at-iop-spring-conference-2025\/\" title=\"UL Physics Girls at IOP Spring Conference 2025\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2442,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"off","_et_pb_old_content":"<!-- wp:image {\"id\":1683,\"linkDestination\":\"media\"} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/BeeGates01-1.mp4\"><img src=\"http:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/BeeGates01-1.mp4\" alt=\"Bee Hive Gates\" class=\"wp-image-1683\"\/><\/a><figcaption>A 25x macro lens shoot with iphonr 6 of gated hive entrance.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<!-- \/wp:image -->","footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-primary-science"],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2441","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2441"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2441\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2443,"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2441\/revisions\/2443"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2442"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2441"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2441"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sophiaphysics.ie\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2441"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
