In addition to receiving the Science Award, Feats of Modest Valour was awarded the runner-up People’s Choice Award at Imagine Science Festival 2017 in New York. The film also received the Professional Documentary Award at Raw Science Film Festival 2018 in California.

Leading into it's screening on Irish national television to over 160,000 viewers, Feats of Modest Valour was one of the Critic's Choice picks in The Sunday Times Culture Magazine, and one of Sunday's TV Highlights according to the Irish Independent.

Following a screening of the film at the Neuroscience Ireland conference in August 2017, head of BrainMatTrain research Dr Eilís Dowd said the film 'literally stunned the (neuro) audience into silence - you couldn't hear a pin drop - the feedback was incredible'.
