2016 Science on screen - Information Day for Filmmakers
Location: The Institute for Lifecourse and Society Building, Dangan, NUI Galway
The SFI Centre for Research in Medical Devices (CÚRAM) and Galway Film Centre have just launched a partnership project called ‘Science on Screen’ funded through Science Foundation Ireland’s Discover Programme, which aims to facilitate, promote and increase the inclusion of science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) content in Irish film and TV production.
The Science on Screen project will 100% fund two 26 minute science films with a budget of €35,000 each. These two films will incorporate areas of research currently underway in CÚRAM. Interested producers are invited to register their interest by contacting scienceonscreen@galwayfilmcentre.ie and are invited to attend an information day at CÚRAM on Saturday 27th February between 10am and 1pm. The information day will be an opportunity for producers and filmmakers to hear first-hand from scientists working in CÚRAM, who will give short presentations on key areas of research currently underway in the centre.
