Events showcasing scientists and their work
The Darwin Centre programme
Shedding their lab coats and protective goggles, Darwin Centre Live makes scientists and their work more accessible to the public.
Located at The Natural History Museum, the Darwin Centre is the living part of the museum, employing over 350 researchers and has a catalogue of over 70 million biological specimens.
With such a wealth of knowledge located in one wing of the Museum, the Darwin Centre offers visitors to the museum, as well as Internet visitors via scheduled broadcasts, the opportunity to learn about the research that is being conducted at the Darwin Centre.
Selected scientists are scheduled to present their research in an interactive environment, allowing for comments, questions, and the occasional debate with experts in a variety of fields. Topics change at each show time and are posted on the Darwin Centre’s Web site.
