The research and development community in any stream is a very dynamic one, where new innovations and invention of modern technologies and methods is a way of life. This holds true all the more when we talk about the science community. This is why it is essential for all the researcher organisations, educational institutes and even the students and experienced working professionals in the stream of science, be it Life Sciences or Earth sciences, to have updated knowledge about the new developments in area. However, in a country such as Ireland, this is not possible easily, as the scientific community in the country is a widely spread one. So, this is where there is the need of a scientific research forum, which unites the entire science community in Ireland.

This need is fulfilled with the ISOF (Irish Science Open Forum). The forum is an exhibition of sorts, which offers a one-to-one interaction between different organisations, scientific research and suppliers and proves to be the best place to form lasting relationships. The forum is a platform for all the scientists involved in the science industry and the education sector to come together and share their knowledge and resources. In fact, even a large number of suppliers of laboratory equipment, test and measurement instruments, cleanroom facilities and analytical devices participate in the exhibition.

With the help of different mediums such as exhibition of new products on different booths, meetings and group discussions, which are held during the course of the event, one can easily be updated on developments in different research projects taken up by academics and science industry and also learn about career paths in the industry. Also, a large number of new organizations and companies from the divisions such as pharmaceuticals, bio pharmaceuticals, medical devices, marine, physics and astrophysics, electronics, chemistry, mathematical science, engineering, material sciences and nanotechnology, forensics, food and beverage processing, clinical and health care, earth sciences and geology, education and public awareness, medical and life science research, advanced computing, advanced communications and IT and forestry and agriculture participate in the ISOF. So, if you also want to experience the fun and want to be a part of the science community, then participate in the Dublin based fair.
