The new series of “10 Things to Know About…” arrives on RTE One at 8.30pm on Monday 13th November!

Revealing secrets of the earth and stars… and blurring lines between minds and machines… Irish scientists have their fingers on the pulse…

This year, Aoibhinn, Jonathan and Kathriona are in the skies and underground, across Ireland and Europe, investigating the topics that are impacting on all our lives: the alarming rise of antimicrobial resistance and superbugs; the latest work to capture and even recreate the awesome power of the sun; the gene therapies that could provide the answer to disease in humans, plants and animals; the secrets under the earth’s surface that threaten but also sustain our way of living; the technology that could communicate thoughts; and the drones that are helping to save lives!
