Tuesday Talk: Seeing Science. Alison Giles, Whipple Museum of the History of Science

Explore the history of science with objects from the Whipple Museum

This talk uses objects from the Whipple’s collection to give a whistle-stop tour of the history of science, with a particular focus on optical instruments. Find out why every medieval explorer needs an astrolabe, use a 19^th-century botanical microscope and make sure you’re not going to be cheated by decimal currency.

Please Note:  This term (Easter Term) no children allowed due to exams taking place.
