Treasure Ireland
Article Abstract:
Massive investment in science, technology and education by Irish government has increased the career opportunities for talented young scientists, engineers, business managers and multinational companies. Ireland's focus on industrial applications and economic growth has raised fears that curiosity driven basic research might become neglected but still science in Ireland has become high-profile and very international in remarkably short time with researchers expecting more consistent pattern of funding from government.
