SSPC investigator and theme lead Prof. Abina Crean at University College Cork (UCC) and SSPC’s COO Dr Sarah Hayes are settling some of the biggest drinking debates in a new series that aired on RTÉ One in a series from Brainstorm presented by Social historian Donal Fallon.
Based on an original piece called The Science of a Hangover written by SSPC alumni Carol McCarthy, UCC, explaining the chemistry involved and how alcohol affects us – from those the first moments of giddiness right through to the thumping headaches that follow.
