Join us for a celebration of You and the Planet; the Royal Society’s event series exploring global environmental issues across the UK and asking how science can look after the planet and life on it.
Talk to scientists at the frontline of understanding and protecting our changing world, including the Museum’s own team, future leaders in African research, and scientists of tomorrow from schools across the UK. Extract some plant DNA, find out what’s valuable about your urine, and what lives beneath your feet.
Then look to the future with the final discussion on what the next steps for us and the planet are.
If you have any questions, please reach out to the Events team.
