Nature Through Roman Eyes: A Closer Look
Author, naturalist, natural philosopher, soldier: Pliny the Elder had quite the life and this is your last chance to see it up close. Walk amongst the exhibits and gain a startling insight into how Romans understood and made use of nature, from wonders of the animal kingdom to botany’s finest plants and trees. Keep an eye out for our pop-up lab, where researchers will be on hand to showcase how the natural world has influenced modern medicine, like developments in anti-inflammatory drugs.
Researchers will be around to chat on Tuesday 23 October – Thursday 25 October 2018, 1pm – 3pm
