Darwin Today Exhibition

The BBRSC (Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council) and RCUK (Research Councils UK) have developed an exhibition for Darwin Year
(2009), which describes the continuing influence of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. The exhibition does not cover the history of Darwin himself or major on the fossil record/natural history. It does however, cover conservation, biodiversity and evolution of birds from dinosaurs.

This exhibition is available for between 2 and 6 weeks from March until December 2009. The costs of producing and transporting the exhibition will be covered by the Research Councils. Help is also available for venues wishing to develop associated activities that use the exhibition as a backdrop eg. schools visits, debates etc. A leaflet describing the style and content of the exhibition is available HERE

For more details, please contact Dr Ray Mathias: Phone: 01760 440413 (home office) or 07770 981655 (mobile).
