In this issue
What’s the use of investing in science?
It all depends on what we expect by way of return. Scientists at the SFI summit did not think it is all just about money.
Could a cloud of volcanic ash create another mini-ice age?
Following an eruption that grounded flights, another Icelandic glacier covered volcano is likely to pose a much greater climate-changing threat.
The biopharma revolution
Using antibodies to guide drugs to their destination can make traditional treatment far more effective while giving Ireland’s pharmaceutical sector a big boost.
Rock scientists
Geologists are planning to make better use of Ireland’s natural resource through a new organisation, iCRAG.
Lab-on-a-Disk
Through a clever combination of physics, engineering and biotechnology, medical testing can now be done with the spin of a disk.

Science Spin Magazine Description:
An independent science magazine presenting science in a way that is accessible, relevant and interesting to all readers. Coverage of science extends from astronomy to zoology, and features are written with both general public and specialists in mind.
Science Spin was established in 2003 to provide an independent platform for reporting on science. Science Spin takes a local view of science both at home and abroad, and in this way it is different from international magazines.
