Science Spin January 2007

In this issue we present some spectacular recent findings from Irish bogs, take a look at some of the lastest research into brain disorders, and investigate the science behind why people want to dance. We also have eight pages of the latest from the world of Earth Science in Ireland, as well as a 16 page supplement for secondary students interested in studying science at third level. Thank you all for your interest in Science Spin in 2006 and we wish all our readers and website visitors the very best for 2007.
