SOPHia poster competition for young Physicists

🌟 SOPHia Physics Poster Competition 2025 , A Celebration of Curiosity and Creativity! 🌟
We had a fantastic day at the University of Limerick hosting this year’s SOPHia Poster Competition! Organised by Prof. Ning Liu and the Department of Physics, the event brought together bright young minds to showcase their creativity and passion for science through posters on two inspiring themes:
🔬 “Physics in the World Around Us”
👩‍🔬 “The Greatest Invention by a Woman in Physics”
📈 With record participation, our judges were truly impressed by the originality, curiosity, and enthusiasm on display. The level of engagement was outstanding!
🎤 Opening remarks were delivered by Prof. Ann Ledwith (Interim Provost and Deputy President) and Prof. Tofail. Syed (Head of Department, Physics), setting an inspiring tone for the day.
🤝 We were also honoured to welcome Mike Keegan from Ei Electronics, whose support and presence were greatly appreciated.
👏 A huge thank you to all the students, teachers, families, and supporters who made this event such a success.
🙏 Special thanks to Kristine Ó Dwyer, Maria Quinn, and all the lecturers, staff, and students of the Department of Physics for their invaluable help in organising and running such a fantastic event!
💡 Special thanks to our sponsors Ei Electronics and the Institute of Physics in Ireland for their continued commitment to science outreach.
We’re incredibly proud to help nurture the next generation of science lovers and critical thinkers!
