      I’m afraid that’s quite unlikely. I’ve done my share of visiting schools and while it’s fun, it’s also very time intensive. But if you’re in the Dublin area your teacher can request a visit from some of our chemistry PhD students and we’ll hopefully be able to send someone to talk to you about his/her work and ask any questions you have, kind of like this here but face-to-face.
      Be aware that those usually talk to the 5th or 6th year chemistry classes as a slightly higher knowledge of science is often required.
