A great little museum, housed in splendid old building in the heart of Oxford. Free admission, but obviously they are grateful for donations.
We came for the exhibition 'Back from the Dead - Demystifying Antibiotics.' On the way to the basement where the exhibition was housed, we passed a host of amazing scientific instruments which we will definitely revisit when we have more time.
The antibiotics exhibition was fascinating, showing the immense amount of time and hard work that had gone into developing medicines that we now use and abuse as if they were Smarties.
Especially interesting was a well-explained section on the discovery of the molecular structure of penicillin using X-ray crystallography by the Nobel prize-winning Dorothy Hodgkin, who had been the chancellor of my old university 40 years ago.
Go while this exhibition is still on.
