Not your average day at the office!
Today we visited Stormont Parliament Buildings to showcase the impact our work is having across
#NorthernIreland and beyond to Executive Ministers, MLAs and policymakers.
They had the chance to talk to our academics and staff who are making a real difference every day, whether that be through world-leading
#Research and
#Innovation, or life-changing work in the community.
This was the first of a year-long programme of events to celebrate our 180th year, and highlighted the important role we play in supporting the government’s objectives and creating real-world change.
“For nearly two centuries, our work has had a huge impact on real lives, and government priorities, every single day.
“We continue to nurture the minds of game-changers. There are researchers at Queen's considering how technological advancements can both assist in, and pose a risk to, the
@niexecutive's commitment to Ending Violence Against Women and Girls; researchers looking at transforming
#Healthcare delivery through new techniques and
#PrecisionMedicine which can aid
#WaitingList reduction, and countless other research teams and institutional initiatives linked to government priorities across
#EconomicGrowth,
#Education,
#ClimateAction, and global peace and security.” (Professor Sir Ian Greer,
@QUBVChancellor)
