I recently took part in a guided tour of the Royal Society, led by a knowledgeable and humorous member of their archives team. Situated in a Grade I listed building, this haven of scientific thought previously served as the German Embassy and showcases the architectural brilliance of John Nash. The tour revealed an intriguing fact: the portrait of Charles Darwin here is touted as the most authentic, challenging the National Portrait Gallery's own claims. Equally captivating is the intricately designed ceiling—a feast for the eyes. A rewarding experience for both the mind and the eyes.

Science exhibition with so many from educational institutions including universities and colleges/ sixth form and high schools showcasing biology, physics and chemistry content covering a range of topics from vaccines, dark matter, photography etc. It was a good day out and so much to learn. A packed event and I would’ve gone back again and again as it was a showcase for the week.

Investigations do more good than harm… first principles don’t change because the subject has money and power. Elon says hi 🙋🏻‍♂️ Shame on The Royal Society.

Unique event venue steeped in intellectual history and scientific endeavour. An inspiring space to hold an event for 120-150 people.

Lots of interesting things to see. The staff was also absolutely wonderful! If there is one thing I'd have to critique, it's the fact that the subtitles of the talks are not always fully correct, since the microphone sometimes misunderstands a word. For a institute that prides itself on inclusion, that might be worth looking into. This wasn't a major issue for me, but I imagine for someone that struggles with hearing, it might be a bit annoying.
